Psalm 38
I have caused my own downfall, people take advantage of me, and even friends have abandoned me. I remain silent because I hope in God. Help me, God!
Daniel 5: 1-12 What’s Daniel about?
King Nebuchadnezzar has died, and his son who has now become king, commits blasphemy by using the sacred vessels from the Jewish temple as ordinary cups at a party. God writes on the wall and Daniel is again called to interpret.
Luke 4: 38-44 What’s Luke about?
Jesus heals Peter’s mother-in-law and many other people. The kingdom is indeed arriving! But Jesus chooses not to stay in order not to be made the centre of a new religion. He moves on to other villages to ensure the kingdom breaks in everywhere.
This week’s collect:
O God,
your Son made himself known to his disciples
in the breaking of bread.
Open the eyes of our faith,
that we may see him in his redeeming work,
who is alive and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever. Amen.
