Today is the 10th Day of Christmas: Readings for Tuesday, January 3: Year 1
Morning, Psalm 68; Evening, Psalm 72;
Genesis 28:10 to 22; Hebrews 11: 13 to 22; John 10: 7 to 17:
“And I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice. So there will be one flock, one shepherd.” (John 10:16)
Jesus speaks of more than one flock or community that hear his voice and obeys his commands. All of us are blessed with the inclusive love of God Who provides us with a path to eternal grace.
You too are gifted with an invitation to follow our Lord Jesus. Merry Christmas: Day 10
As a Christmas gift you are blessed, and you are called by God to be a blessing to all whom you come in contact with. Merry Christmas: Day 9
Be you male or female, you were made as a gift to our community before you were born and so named at your own Christening. Merry Christmas: Day 8
God was born among us to teach us how to depend on God together for help all the time, but most especially in time of human need. Merry Christmas: Day 7
Forgive someone this Christmas and accept being forgiven. Merry Christmas: Day 6
Let us believe with patience, and have patience in believing. Merry Christmas: Day 5
We are never to hurt or harm children, only help them, teach them, save and love them. This is what Christmas is all about. Merry Christmas: Day 4
The testimony of John the apostle about our Lord Jesus is true; Believe. Merry Christmas: Day 3
Let us not take our hate or ill will for another with us to our mortal death. Merry Christmas: Day 2
Our being saved has as much to do with the birth of Jesus as it does his Resurrection from the dead. Merry Christmas: Day 1
Please keep up your thoughts and prayers and hopes for Ukraine, Iran and China.
As we listen to what the Spirit is saying to us, let us live to love and serve, and to teach others to love and serve, while pondering anew what the Almighty can do. John
