Thursday Table Talk

PRAY

Roll the prayer cube for the prayer or use Sunday’s Prayer of the Day-

Holy God, you confound the world’s wisdom in giving your kingdom to the lowly and the pure in heart. Give us such a hunger and thirst for justice, and perseverance in striving for peace, that in our words and deeds the world may see the life of your Son, Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord.

Amen.

READ

Matthew 5:12

1When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up the mountain; and after he sat down, his disciples came to him. 2Then he began to speak, and taught them, saying:   3“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.   4“Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.   5“Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.   6“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.   7“Blessed are the merciful, for they will receive mercy.   8“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.   9“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.   10“Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.   11“Blessed are you when people revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. 12Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.”
