Friday, January 8 — Psalm 7:1–9
Genesis 9; Matthew 4:12–25
Break up your fallow ground, for it is time to seek the Lord until he comes to rain righteousness on you. Hosea 10:12 (NASB)
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what is the will of God—what is good and acceptable and perfect. Romans 12:2
Loving Lord, you call us into repentance, a moment for us to be honest with you. Let the false luster of our lives be transformed by the beauty of your kingdom. May we be renewed by your Spirit in order to live the life to which you call us. Amen.
