Psalm 72 | Background
Give the King wisdom and rule righteously;
His rule will be vast;
He will have pity on the poor and the oppressed;
May he be blessed.
2 Corinthians 11 | Background
Paul - I can match my resume against anyone who comes to preach to you and I have suffered; I have been in danger in all circumstances; I will boast of the things that I am weak; I have escaped persecutions.
Luke 19 | Background
Jesus - he told a parable; A ruler was not going to come back right away to rule and gave pounds for investment; some made more and others less, and he was cruel to those who did not accept his rule.

Today | Collect of the Day: Sunday of the Holy Trinity
Almighty and everlasting God, you have given to us your servants grace, by the confession of a true faith, to acknowledge the glory of the eternal Trinity, and in the power of your divine Majesty to worship the Unity: Keep us steadfast in this faith and worship, and bring us at last to see you in your one and eternal glory, O Father; who with the Son and the Holy Spirit live and reign, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
For Mission
Almighty and everlasting God,
by whose Spirit the whole body of your faithful people
is governed and sanctified:
Receive our supplications and prayers
which we offer before you for
all members of your holy Church,
that in their vocation and ministry
they may truly and devoutly serve you;
through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.
A Collect for the Renewal of Life
O God, the King eternal,
who divides the day from the night
and turns the shadow of death into the morning:
Drive far from us all wrong desires,
incline our hearts to keep your law,
and guide our feet into the way of peace;
that, having done your will with cheerfulness while it was the day,
we may, when night comes,
rejoice to give you thanks;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
