grace, wednesday

Wednesday, November 19

Come to Stillness: Take a few minutes to allow your mind and heart to be still before God.
                                                                                 
Opening Prayer: I am sure that there is in me nothing that could attract the love of One as holy and as just as You are.  Yet You have declared Your unchanging love for me in Christ Jesus.  If nothing in me can win your love, nothing in the universe can prevent You from loving me.  Your love is uncaused and undeserved.  You are Yourself the reason for the love wherewith I am loved. (Knowledge of the Holy by A. W. Tozer)

Scripture Reading for the Day: 2 Corinthians 12:1-10

Reading for Reflection:
 
I do not at all understand the mystery of grace—only that it meets us where we are but does not leave us where it found us.  It can be received gladly or grudgingly, in big gulps or in tiny tastes, like a deer at the salt.  I gobbled it, licked it, held it down between my little hooves. (Traveling Mercies by Anne Lamott)

Reflection and Listening: silent and written

Prayer: for the church, for others, for myself
     
                                                                                              
Closing Prayer: O Lord, my God, thank you that, regardless of the situation or the circumstance, your grace is always sufficient for me.  Through Christ Jesus.  Amen
