JOHN 7:16-17 (MSG)

PRAYER
So much seems unruly, Lord, without order, chaotic, and confused. Yet I praise you for the goodness of the Law, how it helps us to live together with purpose and holiness of life. May I show others how Christ fulfilled the Law, lifting its burdens and showing it can be a blessed means of serving you and the neighbor. Amen. (Daily Texts, Ground Up Grace edition)
