Today’s Reading: Psalm 58 (NIV)*

Gospel Reading:
The Sum of the Law and the Prophets
“Which of you,
if your son asks for bread,
will give him a stone?
Or if he asks for a fish,
will give him a snake?
If you, then, though you are evil,
know how to give good gifts to your children,
how much more will your Father in heaven
give good gifts to those who ask him!
So in everything,
do to others
what you would have them do to you,
for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.
(Matthew 7:9-12).

This is how we know what love is:
Jesus Christ laid down his life for us.
And we ought to lay down our lives
for our brothers and sisters.
(1 John 3:16 NIV)
