From Morning Prayer:

 

Weekend day of Lent

Saint Gundleus, Prince, Hermit

 

 

"Two men went up into the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.

 

The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, 'God, I thank thee that I am not like other men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week, I give tithes of all that I get.'

 

But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me a sinner!'

 

I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for every one who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted."

 

(from the Gospel of Lk. 18: 9-14)

 

I pray that this text finds you loving others as God has loved you.

 

I pray that we may all have had a day of humbling ourselves.

 

Please pray for all those listed in all the parts of the litany from last Monday (Part 1)(Part 2)(Part 3)(Part 4).

 

Humility, Obedience, and Glorifying God  🙏 ✌️
