The First Sunday in Advent
DEUTERONOMY 4:23 (CEV)
Always remember the agreement that the LORD your God made with you, and don't make an idol in any shape or form.
COLOSSIANS 1:15 (MSG)
We look at this Son and see the God who cannot be seen. We look at this Son and see God’s original purpose in everything created.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
When dealing with God don't accept anything less than the best -- the Son of God.
PRAYER
Almighty God, you have no equal. Yet there are so many distractions which function as idols in the world today. I'm tempted to align my life with people who offer political or economic solutions. I'm easily swayed. Refresh my imagination so that I'm swayed only by your Son and his vision for the world. I'm going to go all in only with him -- and you. Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name, your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
Since 2006, I've been modeling one way of using the MORAVIAN DAILY TEXTS* to maintain a daily conversation with God.
