Tuesday, January 2 — Psalm 2
Genesis 2:4–25; Matthew 1:18–25
The Lord has sent me to provide for those who mourn in Zion—to give them a garland instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the mantle of praise instead of a faint spirit. Isaiah 61:3
Jesus said, “Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28
Healer, Redeemer, Binder of wounds, through your love all things are made new. We give thanks that in you we are made whole. In the name of the one who calls us beloved. Amen.
