Everywhere—from east to west— praise the name of the Lord.
Psalm 113:3
“I will search with lanterns in Jerusalem’s darkest corners to punish those who sit complacent in their sins. They think the Lord will do nothing to them, either good or bad.
Zephaniah 1:12
You say, ‘I am rich. I have everything I want. I don’t need a thing!’ And you don’t realize that you are wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked. So I advise you to buy gold from me—gold that has been purified by fire. Then you will be rich. Also buy white garments from me so you will not be shamed by your nakedness, and ointment for your eyes so you will be able to see.
Revelation 3:17-18
God of forgiveness, when we miss the mark, your love makes room for our error. Because of your great compassion, we can keep trying, striving to live into your will. May we find new ways to do so today. Amen.
