Hymn of the Day
Accept, O Lord, the gifts we bring to place upon your table. We do not worship as we ought but only as we're able. ("Accept, O Lord, the Gifts We Bring" - Text:Beth Bergeron Folkemer, b. 1957)

Readings of the Day
1 Peter 5-Greet one another with a kiss of love.
Jeremiah 39-40-Then Jeremiah went to Mizpah to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam and stayed with him among the people who were left in the land.
Psalm 138-Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me; You will stretch forth Your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and Your right hand will save me.
Hebrews 9.23-28-For Christ did not enter a holy place made with hands, a mere copy of the true one, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us; nor was it that He would offer Himself often, as the high priest enters the holy place year by year with blood that is not his own. Otherwise, He would have needed to suffer often since the foundation of the world; but now once at the consummation of the ages He has been manifested to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.

I have sacrificed Myself for your sin. Sacrificed the Lamb of God in Jesus, once and for all time. I left behind My Spirit to lead and guide you.

Rejoice and love each other in Me.
