<figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " > June 11, 2026 The Daily Liturgy Podcast &nbsp; Opening PrayerO God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you. I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands. &nbsp; Confession of Sin &amp; Prayer for Grace Merciful God, I confess that I have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what I have done, and by what I have left undone. I have not loved you with my whole heart; I have not loved my neighbor as myself. In your mercy, forgive what I have been, help me amend what I am, and direct what I shall be, so that I may delight in your will and walk in your ways, for the glory of your holy name. Through Jesus Christ our Lord: Amen.Pause to confess specifically any sins the Holy Spirit may be convicting you about. &nbsp; Old Testament Reading: 1 Samuel 2:1-10 &nbsp; The Lord’s PrayerOur Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name.&nbsp;Thy kingdom come.&nbsp;Thy will be done,&nbsp;on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.&nbsp;And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation,&nbsp;but deliver us from evil.&nbsp;For thine is the kingdom and the power, and the glory,&nbsp;forever. Amen. &nbsp; New Testament Reading: Romans 12 &nbsp; Prayer of AdorationO God: I adore you for the body of Christ - the church, in all her glory and beauty. Thank you, Jesus, that you died to redeem this people, and that you have graced each member with gifts that differ according to your design. Increase my love for your church and for each person within it. &nbsp; Psalm Reading: Psalm 113 &nbsp; Prayer of ConsecrationLord, as I move into this day, I recognize that I am a worshiper. I can’t NOT be. My life is always proclaiming the value and the worth and the glory of something. And how often I proclaim the glory of lesser gods! This Psalm reminds me that YOUR name is to be praised. And so I will receive this both as a rebuke and an invitation. I confess not praising you as I should; and I renew my commitment to live today as a vibrant, joyful, unapologetic worshiper of you. “From the rising of the sun to its setting, the name of the Lord is to be praised!” So let me be conscious of you throughout this day, and let me worship you in everything: in the quiet moments and the chaotic ones, in my work and in my rest, in the glorious and the mundane. Blessed be the name of the Lord, from this time forth and forevermore.Take time now specifically to intercede for yourself, your neighbors, your church, your city, and the world, bringing your needs and the needs of others before the Lord. &nbsp; BENEDICTIONAnd now may the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with us now and always, until the day of Christ's return. &nbsp; <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " > &nbsp;
