Today’s Reading: Psalm 137:7-9

Father God,
 at times I have been guilty of schadenfreude.
Help me to show compassion
rather than smug indifference
when I see others experience loss.
Thank you for your ongoing mercy.
Amen.

— — — —

Bless those who persecute you;
bless and do not curse. 
Rejoice with those who rejoice;
mourn with those who mourn. 
Live in harmony with one another.
Do not be proud,
but be willing to associate
with people of low position.
Do not be conceited.
(Romans 12:14-16 NIV)*

Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer”
by David Kitz.Psalm 28b -365

Reading: Psalm 28:6-9

 LORD God,
help me to grasp the full extent of the victory
I have in you.
Now I ask you to hear my prayer,
“Save your people and bless your inheritance;
be their shepherd and carry them forever.”
Amen.

— — —

The sting of death is sin,
and the power of sin is the law.
But thanks be to God!
He gives us the victory
through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Therefore,
my dear brothers and sisters,
stand firm.
Let nothing move you.
Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord,
because you know
that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.
(1 Corinthians 15:56-58), NIV)*

“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer”
by David Kitz.Psalm 20_1

Reading: Psalm 20

Heavenly Father,
I repent of jealousy and envy.
Help me speak words of blessing
over those around me.
I trust you.
You are the origin and true source of all health
and blessing in this world.
Amen.

“But to you who are listening I say:
Love your enemies,
do good to those who hate you,
bless those who curse you,

If someone slaps you on one cheek,
turn to them the other also.
If someone takes your coat,
do not withhold your shirt from them.

Psalm 100_4

Reading: Psalm 118:25-29
LORD, save us!
    LORD, grant us success!
   Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD.
From the house of the LORD we bless you.
The LORD is God,
and he has made his light shine on us.
With boughs in hand, join in the festal procession
up to the horns of the altar.
You are my God, and I will praise you;
    you are my God, and I will exalt you.
Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good;
    his love endures forever.

Reading: Psalm 109:26-31

Help me, LORD my God;
    save me according to your unfailing love.
Let them know that it is your hand,
    that you, LORD, have done it.
While they curse, may you bless;
    may those who attack me be put to shame,
    but may your servant rejoice.
May my accusers be clothed with disgrace
    and wrapped in shame as in a cloak.
With my mouth I will greatly extol the LORD;
    in the great throng of worshipers I will praise him.
For he stands at the right hand of the needy,
    to save their lives from those who would condemn them.

You care for the land and water it;
    you enrich it abundantly.
The streams of God are filled with water
    to provide the people with grain,
    for so you have ordained it.
You drench its furrows and level its ridges;
    you soften it with showers and bless its crops.
You crown the year with your bounty,
    and your carts overflow with abundance.
The grasslands of the wilderness overflow;
    the hills are clothed with gladness.
The meadows are covered with flocks
    and the valleys are mantled with grain;
    they shout for joy and sing.

(Psalm 65:9-13, NIV)*
