Psalm 61
I was burdened and God became my strength-be with me always.
Psalm 62
In face of evil, we trust in God to be our solid foundation.
Ecclesiasticus (Sirach) 43.1-22 What’s Ecclesiasticus about?
God is amazing to have created the various natural processes.
Luke 13.1-9 What’s Luke about?
Groups of people have died in a massacre and another group in a construction accident. Jesus insists this was not because of any immoral act, but that if we aren’t enacting the kingdom we will lose our life just as certainly. Like a barren fig tree, there is still time left for us to bear fruit of love, but it is urgent that we do so.
This week’s collect:
Almighty God,
whose chosen servant Abraham obeyed your call,
rejoicing in your promise
that in him the family of the earth is blessed,
give us faith like his,
that in us your promises may be fulfilled;
through Jesus Christ our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever. Amen.
