ISAIAH 5:22-23 (ABP)
Those who accept bribes to spare the guilty, while robbing the innocent of justice are DOOMED!
PHILIPPIANS 4:8 (CEB)
Focus your thoughts on these things: all that is true, all that is holy, all that is just, all that is pure, all that is lovely, and all that is worthy of praise.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
Saturate your life with the right and honorable stuff.
PRAYER
Holy God, how easily I exclude myself from the wrongs I see in others. Help me to change direction and follow the way of Christ who chose to suffer rather than inflict suffering. Help me endure scorn and misunderstanding rather than stay silent in the face of injustice. May the purity of Christ embolden me to suffer for him. Amen. (Daily Texts, Ground Up Grace edition)
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 2015, I've been modeling one way of using the MORAVIAN DAILY TEXTS* to maintain a daily conversation with God.
