Sunday, July 5 – Ezekiel 2:1-5; Psalm 123
2 Corinthians 12:2-10; Mark 6:1-13
The Lord raises up the poor from the dust. 1 Samuel 2:8
Which one of you, having a hundred sheep and losing one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after the one that is lost until he finds it? When he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders and rejoices. Luke 15:4-5
Faithful Shepherd, in those times when our faith waivers and we fall away, we know you will find us and lead us back to the flock. Help us always to feel your love and grace. Give us shelter from life’s storms and from our own lukewarmness. Amen.
