My reading this morning was cool; I found a picture to go with it and added it to my read-the-Bible-in-a-year site.
The Lord is the keeper of little ones
I’m looking forward to Easter vigil tonight! The Triduum is amazing; it’s been too long since I attended all three services.
One thing I am looking forward to tonight, is the use of the new candle stands. My mom sold dad’s field last fall and gifted some of the money to us kids. I made a donation to St. Cecilia and Father Secora asked how we would like it to be used, and offered some suggestions. I decided on new candle stands for the Easter candle and side candles at the altar. I’m anxious to see them, now … a piece of my dad and mom in my church. That’s kind of cool.
Psalms 114*
| 1 I have loved, because the Lord will hear the voice of my prayer. | |
| 2 Because he hath inclined his ear unto me: and in my days I will call upon him. | |
| 3 The sorrows of death have encompassed me: and the perils of hell have found me. I met with trouble and sorrow: | |
| 4 And I called upon the name of the Lord. O Lord, deliver my soul. | |
| 5 The Lord is merciful and just, and our God sheweth mercy. | |
| 6 The Lord is the keeper of little ones: I was little and he delivered me. | |
| 7 Turn, O my soul, into thy rest: for the Lord hath been bountiful to thee. | |
| 8 For he hath delivered my soul from death: my eyes from tears, my feet from falling. | |
| 9I will please the Lord in the land of the living.
*This is from Psalm 116 in most Bible versions. My reading plan uses Douay-Rhimes and the numbering in Psalms is very different! |
