In the morning let us prepare for the new day with the words of the New Testament and in the evening let us reflect on how God moves in the lives of his people.

Morning Reading from the New Testament: 2 Corinthians 1

Paul, to the church in Corinth. We share in Christ’s sufferings and comfort. My yes is not no, but to spare you I did not visit you.

Evening Reading from the Old Testament: Proverbs 15-16

A gentle answer turns away wrath. The eyes of the LORD are everywhere. Plans fail for lack of counsel. The LORD hears the righteous.

A man plans his way, but the LORD directs his steps. Kings detest evil. Pride goes before destruction. Wisdom is a fountain of life.
