"From Grumbling to Rejoicing"

Looking Ahead

Thursday-Saturday Readings

Thursday, Sept. 11 — Psalm 51:1-10; Genesis 6:1-16; 1 Timothy 1:1-11

Friday, Sept. 12 — Psalm 51:1-10; Genesis 7:6-10; 8:1-5; 2 Peter 2:1-10a

Saturday, Sept. 13 — Psalm 51:1-10; Genesis 8:20–9:7; John 10:1-21

Will we complain when God's grace reaches others, or will we rejoice that the Good Shepherd knows His sheep and calls them by name?

The Sunday Readings

Sunday, Sept. 14 — 15th Sunday after Pentecost

Exodus 32:7-14; Psalm 51:1-10; 1 Timothy 1:12-17; Luke 15:1-10

Will we grumble like the Pharisees, or rejoice with heaven at God’s mercy for the lost including us?

Reflecting Back

Monday-Wednesday Readings

Monday — Psalm 73; Amos 7:1-6; 1 Timothy 1:18-20

Tuesday — Psalm 73; Jonah 3:1-10; 2 Peter 3:8-13

Wednesday — Psalm 73; Job 40:6–14; 42:1-6; Luke 22:31-33, 54-62

When we fail, God’s grace still pursues us. God turns our envy into trust, our grumbling into prayer, and our despair into rejoicing.
