II. Selections
Psalm 138:7
Though I walk in the midst of trouble,
you preserve me against the wrath of my enemies;
you stretch out your hand,
and your right hand delivers me.
Hosea 10:12
Sow for yourselves righteousness;
reap steadfast love;
break up your fallow ground;
for it is time to seek the LORD,
that he may come and rain righteousness upon you.
Acts 25:27
Agrippa said to Festus, "I would like to hear the man [ Paul] myself." "Tomorrow," he said, "you will hear him."
Luke 8:21
But [ Jesus] said to them, "My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and do it."
III. Meditation: Seek, hear, and do
O God of steadfast love, you rain down
righteousness upon those who seek you.
Though we walk in the midst of trouble,
preserve us from distraction and dejection;
stretch out your right hand and deliver us,
that we may take time to hear your word
and have faith to act upon what we hear.
In the name of him we claim as brother.
