Tuesday, February 18 — Psalm 26
Genesis 46:1–27; Matthew 16:5–20
Do not fear, O soil; be glad and rejoice, for the Lord has done great things! Joel 2:21
Without any doubt, the mystery of our religion is great: He was revealed in flesh, vindicated in spirit, seen by angels, proclaimed among Gentiles, believed in throughout the world, taken up in glory. 1 Timothy 3:16
God of creation, we rejoice in your faithfulness. Though unworthy, we trust that you heal, forgive, and save. In that knowledge, we find joy and peace and give thanks. Amen.
