Psalm: 148 Meditation: LukeEven the naming of John the Baptist did not come without controversy and a miracle. John’s father had been mute since the visit of the angel. It was only when he acknowledged the boy’s name(John) would God give him back the ability to speak. Witnesses to these events were filled with awe …

Psalm: 119:1-24 Meditation: AmosIt is interesting that God uses His people as a witness to both His love and justice. Here God uses the pagan neighbors to witness the corruption of His people and the punishment that will be allowed against them. The list of transgressions is long with their callousness towards the weak, the …

Psalm:  97, 99 Meditation: JohnHow many times do the followers of Jesus have to attest to the truths they believe to the same people?

Psalm: 67 Meditation: 2 Cor.Sometimes it is difficult to witness in the face of opposition and stay true to God’s purpose for you. What actually is persecution? Can you name examples of how individuals suffer for their service to God? How does Paul respond in this story to criticism from other, so-called, believers?  Gospel:   …

Psalm: 66 Meditation Luke: This is one of those selections I don’t fully understand chosen for this day in the Book of Common Prayer (BCP – 1977). Simeon is one of the last prophets of the Old Testament (also allowing that John the Baptist was an Old Testament prophet) – he is what I describe …

Psalm: 146 Meditation John: Here Jesus is accused of bearing witness to Himself where the Law (Deut. 19:15) clearly states that effective witness in two or more but not just one. The ninth Commandment warns against giving false testimony. True, Jesus is His own witness, but He has another: His Father. These Pharisees are having …

Psalm: 119:121-144 Meditation Deuteronomy: For our purposes the meaningful objective of the passage shows up in Deut. 31:19: ”Now write down for ourselves this song and teach it to the Israelites and have them the sing it, so that it may be a witness for me against them.” This ode is sung principally so the …
