Monday, June 27 — Psalm 79:1–8
Deuteronomy 4:32–5:21; Luke 5:12–26
Love the Lord, all you his saints. Psalm 31:23
The scribe said to Jesus, “You are right, Teacher; you have truly said that ‘He is one, and besides him there is no other;’ and ‘to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the strength,’ and ‘to love one’s neighbor as oneself,’—this is much more important than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.” Mark 12:32–33
Teacher, help us to live in and be guided by the Spirit. Help us to seek a true understanding of your words, to be faithful and to love one another with our whole selves, and to love you with all of our hearts, minds, and souls. Amen.
