Week of 4 Easter

Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains. Pray that I may proclaim it clearly, as I should. Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the most of every opportunity. Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.Scriptures from The Daily Office Lectionary in The Book of Common Prayer for the Week of the Fourth Sunday of Easter:Sunday 63: 1-8(9-11), 98 v 103Exod. 25: 1-4, 30-38 1 John 2: 18-29 Mark 6: 30-44Monday 41, 52 v 44Exod. 32: 1-20 Col. 3: 18--4: 6(7-18) Matt. 5: 1-10Tuesday 45 v 47, 48Exod. 32: 21-34 1 Thess. 1: 1-10 Matt. 5: 11-16Wednesday 119: 49-72 v 49, [53]Exod. 33: 1-23 1 Thess. 2: 1-12 Matt. 5: 17-20Thursday 50 v [59, 60] or 114, 115Exod. 34: 1-17 1 Thess. 2: 13-20 Matt. 5: 21-26Friday 40, 54 v 51Exod. 34: 18-35 1 Thess. 3: 1-13 Matt. 5: 27-37Saturday 55 v 138, 139: 1-17(18-23)Exod. 40: 18-38 1 Thess. 4: 1-12 Matt. 5: 38-48#biblestudy #dailyoffice #dailyofficelectionary #sundayschool #episcopalian #episcopal #christians #easter #eastertide #anglican #scripture #dailydevotional #dailydevotion
