Reading | While teaching by the sea, Jesus calls people who call themselves sinners to be his disciples; He heals someone and asks them to be silent but they are not; He declares a paralyzed he is forgiven and then asks him to get up and walk and he does; He calls a tax collector to be a disciple and that person is reformed; about fasting and obeying tradition - See I make all things new.

Who have you forgiven today so that they might be healed?

Psalm 101

1  I will sing of mercy and justice; *
to you, O LORD, will I sing praises.
2  I will strive to follow a blameless course;
oh, when will you come to me? *
I will walk with sincerity of heart within my house.
3  I will set no worthless thing before my eyes; *
I hate the doers of evil deeds;
they shall not remain with me.
4  A crooked heart shall be far from me; *
I will not know evil.
5  Those who in secret slander their neighbors I will destroy; *
those who have a haughty look and a proud heart I cannot abide.
6  My eyes are upon the faithful in the land, that they may dwell with me, *
and only those who lead a blameless life shall be my servants.
7  Those who act deceitfully shall not dwell in my house, *
and those who tell lies shall not continue in my sight.
8  I will soon destroy all the wicked in the land, *
that I may root out all evildoers from the city of the LORD.

Collect of the Day

Everlasting God, you have ordained and constituted in a wonderful order the ministries of angels and mortals: Mercifully grant that, as your holy angels always serve and worship you in heaven, so by your appointment they may help and defend us here on earth; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
