Saturday, February 8 — Psalm 22:1–8
2 Chronicles 14,15; Acts 20:32–21:4
He has gained renown by his wonderful deeds; the Lord is gracious and merciful. Psalm 111:4
The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a sharing in the blood of Christ? The bread that we break, is it not a sharing in the body of Christ? 1 Corinthians 10:16
Renewing God, when we find ourselves at the table together in Christ’s name, may we be reminded not only of the sacredness of your self-giving love, but may we also be inspired to give of ourselves in care and service to others near to heart and hand. May Christ’s grace and mercy be that which we not only receive, but which we offer daily with glad heart and mind. Amen.
