2024 Read the Bible in a Year
April 2, 2024
Tuesday of Easter Week
Readings for Today:
Day 91 - 1 Chronicles 1:1 - 9:44
See the animated overview of the Chronicles above.
Prayer:
Loving God, dissolve the barriers of suspicion that divide us from one another.
Fill us with your love that casts out fear.
Clothe us in your light and grace, that we may be agents of hope and encouragement for those who despair and have lost their way.
Help us each find our particular way to proclaim the good news of your saving love in our daily lives and work.
We pray that our government and leaders at every level of authority may be strengthened to heal the structures that bruise your people.
God, hear our prayers.
Amen
(All Saints Episcopal Church - Pasadena prayers - 27 Oct 2019 worship)
Reflection:
Today’s reading is everything you wanted to know about the genealogy from Adam to the return of leaders from the Exile.
It is interesting reading that we can directly follow God's work via each person with a child that leads to the next generation and so forth from the beginning of history to the beginning of the rule of Saul or the Monarchy (or happy days are here finally or so they think). People are the focus with sometimes the occasional war and sometimes wealth listings of people of note in this work of God.
Tomorrow's Readings: 1 Chronicles 10:1 – 12:40
