"For this people's heart has become calloused; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts and turn, and I would heal them.' But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear. For I tell you the truth, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it."
**Matthew 13:15-17
Let us Pray:
'What Need I Fear?'
Alone with none but thee, my God,
I journey on my way.
What need I fear when thou art near,
Oh king of night and day?
More safe am I within thy hand
Than if a host did round me stand.
** St. Columba

" When they lead you away and deliver you up, don't be anxious beforehand, or premeditate what you will say, but say whatever will be given you in that hour. For it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit. "
**Mark 13:11
Let us Pray:
'Clap Your Hands, All You Peoples'
Clap your hands, all you peoples; shout to God with loud songs of joy. For the LORD, the Most High, is awesome, a great king over all the earth.
He subdued peoples under us, and nations under our feet. He chose our heritage for us, the pride of Jacob whom he loves. Selah
God has gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet. Sing praises to God, sing praises; sing praises to our King, sing praises. For God is the king of all the earth; sing praises with a psalm.
God is king over the nations; God sits on his holy throne.
The princes of the peoples gather as the people of the God of Abraham. For the shields of the earth belong to God; he is highly exalted.

" Pointing to his disciples, he said, "Here are my mother and my brothers. For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.""
**Matthew 12:49-50
Let us Pray:
'Heal Me, for I Have Sinned'
Happy are those who consider the poor;the LORD delivers them in the day of trouble. The LORD protects them and keeps them alive; hey are called happy in the land. You do not give them up to the will of their enemies. The LORD sustains them on their sickbed; n their illness you heal all their infirmities. As for me, I said, “O LORD, be gracious to me; heal me, for I have sinned against you.” My enemies wonder in malice when I will die, and my name perish. And when they come to see me, they utter empty words, while their hearts gather mischief; when they go out, they tell it abroad.
All who hate me whisper together about me; they imagine the worst for me. They think that a deadly thing has fastened on me, that I will not rise again from where I lie. Even my bosom friend in whom I trusted, who ate of my bread, has lifted the heel against me. But you, O LORD, be gracious to me, and raise me up, that I may repay them.
By this I know that you are pleased with me; because my enemy has not triumphed over me. But you have upheld me because of my integrity, and set me in your presence forever.
Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting.
Amen and Amen.

Father, I'm praying All in my circle of family and friends will have servant hearts...
May our desire to have servant hearts, considering others better than ourselves, putting others' needs above our own.
May we imitate Christ, who became a servant, humbling Himself to become human just like us, living a life of obedience even to death. Jesus came not to be served but to serve and to give His life.
May we serve one another in love, always wholeheartedly as though we are serving the Lord Jesus, not men. May we use the spiritual gifts we've received to serve others with the strength You provide, so that in all things You may be praised.
May we always be eager to serve, treating others as they would want to be treated. Help us to live for others, asking, "How would I want to be treated in this and every situation?"—and responding just that way.
In Jesus' name, Amen.

Give ear to my words, O LORD; give heed to my sighing. Listen to the sound of my cry, my King and my God, for to you I pray. O LORD, in the morning you hear my voice; in the morning I plead my case to you, and watch.
For you are not a God who delights in wickedness; evil will not sojourn with you. The boastful will not stand before your eyes; you hate all evildoers. You destroy those who speak lies; the LORD abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful.
But I, through the abundance of your steadfast love, will enter your house, I will bow down toward your holy temple in awe of you. Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousness because of my enemies; make your way straight before me.
For there is no truth in their mouths; their hearts are destruction; their throats are open graves; they flatter with their tongues. Make them bear their guilt, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; because of their many transgressions cast them out, for they have rebelled against you.
But let all who take refuge in you rejoice; let them ever sing for joy. Spread your protection over them, so that those who love your name may exult in you. For you bless the righteous, O LORD; you cover them with favor as with a shield.

"“I, even I, am the LORD, and apart from me there is no savior. I have revealed and saved and proclaimed— I, and not some foreign god among you. You are my witnesses," declares the LORD, "that I am God.” "
**Isaiah 43:11-12
Let us Pray:
'To Manage Time Well'
Father, I'm praying for all in my circle of family and friends to be good managers of time...
Help us to learn from Mary and Martha that busyness can keep them from sitting at the feet of Jesus where they'll receive His teaching and enjoy His friendship. May we find the one thing that Jesus said is needed—unhurried time at His feet. Protect us from the busyness of Martha; may our lives not be driven by the urgent but by the important—and help us know the difference. May we remember that Mary chose to sit at Jesus' feet.
May we make that choice, too, learning to be still before You—to cease striving, to let be, to know that You are God. Otherwise, we may find ourselves working and serving in their own strength instead of Yours, feeling weary and weighed down.
Help us not to try stretching our days, rising early and staying up late to do the things they feel we need to do— for You grant sleep to those You love.
May we pause throughout the day, asking You to order our steps, being confident that You will.
In Jesus' name, amen.
