I pray you hear God's invitation to you to come sit with Him a while.
The Collect for today:
O Lord, make us have perpetual love and reverence
for your holy Name, for you never fail to help and govern those whom you
have set upon the sure foundation of your lovingkindness; through Jesus
Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one
God, for ever and ever. Amen.
The lectionary readings appointed for today:
1 Samuel 17:(1a, 4-11, 19-23), 32-49
Psalm 9 v9-20
2 Corinthians 6 v1-13
Mark 4 v35-41
Mark 4:35-41
When evening had come, Jesus said to his
disciples, "Let us go across to the other side." And leaving the crowd
behind, they took him with them in the boat, just as he was. Other boats
were with him. A great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat,
so that the boat was already being swamped. But he was in the stern,
asleep on the cushion; and they woke him up and said to him, "Teacher, do
you not care that we are perishing?" He woke up and rebuked the wind, and
said to the sea, "Peace! Be still!" Then the wind ceased, and there was a
dead calm. He said to them, "Why are you afraid? Have you still no faith?"
And they were filled with great awe and said to one another, "Who then is
this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?"
