to show mercy each morning." [Lamentations 3:23, Contemporary English Version] for Friday, 23 January 2015
Good Morning, Ministry Partner:
Be Encouraged by God's Word:
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his power. Put on the whole armor of God, so that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For our struggle is not against enemies of blood and flesh, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers of this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, so that you may be able to withstand on that evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm. Stand therefore, and fasten the belt of truth around your waist, and put on the breastplate of righteousness. As shoes for your feet put on whatever will make you ready to proclaim the gospel of peace. With all of these, take the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.{Ephesians 6:10-17, NRSV]
Wisdom from Fellow Pilgrims:
The spiritual life does not remove us from the world but leads us deeper into it.[Henri Nouwen]
Pray Together with Us:
Lord, here I am, do with me as seems best in your own eyes; only give me, I ask you, a penitent and patient spirit to expect you. Make my service to you while I live, and my soul ready for you when I die.[Archbishop Laud]
