Friday, August 9, 2024 — Psalm 96:1–9
Joshua 18:1–19:9; Luke 16:1–15
Deliver those who are drawn toward death, and hold back those stumbling to the slaughter. If you say, “Surely we did not know this,” Does not he who weighs the hearts consider it? Proverbs 24:10-12 NKJV
If one member suffers, all suffer together with it; if one member is honored, all rejoice together with it. 1 Corinthians 12:26
Holy Trinity—Abba, Jesus, and Spirit—you dwell in community. You invite us to imagine that we can do the same—sharing joy, sharing burdens, knowing one another as sister or brother. Your love gives us the strength to live together for the sake of the whole, rather than only for self-centered gain. Teach us to love with heart, soul, and mind. Amen.
