PATHWAYS

The Sixth Sunday after Epiphany

JOSHUA 22:5 (ABP)
Love GOD -- your God -- by walking through life along the pathways that he has estabished. Keep his rules of the road.

JOHN 12:26 (MSG)
"If any of you wants to serve me, then follow me. Then you’ll be where I am, ready to serve at a moment’s notice." -- Jesus

SUMMARY SENTENCE
If we're serious about living a godly life we'll follow Jesus along the ways that he is blazing and in that way be available to serve him.

PRAYER
Thank you, Jesus, for inviting us to join you along the pathway of life. I admit, though, that I like to trailblaze my own routes and go my own way. I miss out on your companionship and wisdom when I do that. Draw me back onto the path that you're blazing so that I can find my life's purpose in serving 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.
