Today’s Reading

3/10/2019     Day 69 1 Samuel 18:1 – 20:42

Reflection:

Background by Center of Biblical Studies. Background by
Chabad.org
Saul gives David power as a general and wins tremendously;
Saul become jealous; foreskins; marriage; Saul creates a plot
against David and David flees; David and Jonathan become allies
after an assassination attempt.
Meditation/Contemplate:
God protects all the God loves.

Prayer:
O Lord our Governor, whose glory is in all the world: We commend
this nation to thy merciful care, that, being guided by thy Providence,
we may dwell secure in thy peace. Grant to the President of the United
States, the Governor of this State (or Commonwealth), and to all in
authority, wisdom and strength to know and to do thy will. Fill them
with the love of truth and righteousness, and make them ever mindful
of their calling to serve this people in thy fear; through Jesus Christ our
Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God,
world without end. Amen. (BCP)

Almighty and everlasting God, you hate nothing you have made and
forgive the sins of all who are penitent: Create and make in us new and
contrite hearts, that we, worthily lamenting our sins and
acknowledging our wretchedness, may obtain of you, the God of all
mercy, perfect remission and forgiveness; through Jesus Christ our
Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God,
forever and ever. Amen. (BCP)
