Psalm of the day: Psalm 111
1 Praise Yah! I will give thanks to Yahweh with my whole heart, in the council of the upright, and in the congregation.
2 Yahweh’s works are great, pondered by all those who delight in them.
3 His work is honor and majesty. His righteousness endures forever.
4 He has caused his wonderful works to be remembered. Yahweh is gracious and merciful.
5 He has given food to those who fear him. He always remembers his covenant.
6 He has shown his people the power of his works, in giving them the heritage of the nations.
7 The works of his hands are truth and justice. All his precepts are sure.
8 They are established forever and ever. They are done in truth and uprightness.
9 He has sent redemption to his people. He has ordained his covenant forever. His name is holy and awesome!
10 The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of wisdom. All those who do his work have a good understanding. His praise endures forever!
Prayer of the day: Come, Holy Spirit
fill the hearts of your faithful
and kindle in them the fire of your love.
Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created,
and you shall renew the face of the earth.
Let us pray: O God, who taught the hearts of the faithful by the light of the Holy Spirit,
grant that by the same Spirit we may be truly wise
and ever rejoice in his consolation.
Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
