Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer
”


Today’s
Reading:
Psalm 106: 1-5 (NIV)*

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:

Father God,
I call on you. Look on me with favor.
I know I fall short of your standard.
I need your mercy.
I depend on you.
I know my efforts are inadequate.
I rely on your grace.
 Amen.

Gospel Reading:
Paying the Imperial Tax to Caesar

Later they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians
to Jesus to catch him in his words.

 They came to him and said,
“Teacher, we know that you are a man of integrity.
You aren’t swayed by others, because you pay no attention to who they are;
but you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth.
Is it right to pay the imperial tax to Caesar or not?

 Should we pay or shouldn’t we?”

But Jesus knew their hypocrisy.
“Why are you trying to trap me?” he asked.
“Bring me a denarius and let me look at it.”

 They brought the coin, and he asked them,
“Whose image is this? And whose inscription?”

“Caesar’s,” they replied.

 Then Jesus said to them,
“Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.”

And they were amazed at him.
(Mark 12:13-17).

God sent his Son to be the Savior of the world.
We saw his son and are now telling others about him.

(1 John 4:14 NIV)
