The word for today

Matthew 6:22-23

“The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light.  But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. So if the light within you is darkness, how deep is that darkness!

Luke 11:33-35

“No one lights a lamp and puts it in the cellar or under a basket, but on a lampstand, so that those who come in may see its light.  Your eye is the lamp of the body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is also full of light. But when it is bad, your body is also full of darkness.  Take care, then, that the light in you is not darkness.

Revelation 3:14-20

“Write to the angel of the church in Laodicea: Thus says the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the originator of God’s creation: I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish that you were cold or hot. So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I am going to vomit you out of my mouth. For you say, ‘I’m rich; I have become wealthy and need nothing,’ and you don’t realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind, and naked. I advise you to buy from me gold refined in the fire so that you may be rich, white clothes so that you may be dressed and your shameful nakedness not be exposed, and ointment to spread on your eyes so that you may see. As many as I love, I rebuke and discipline. So be zealous and repent. See! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me.

Psalm 68:9

You, God, showered abundant rain; you revived your inheritance when it languished.

Psalm 72:1

Of Solomon.

God, give your justice to the king and your righteousness to the king’s son.

Psalm 69:1

For the choir director: according to “The Lilies.” Of David.

Save me, God, for the water has risen to my neck.

Psalm 96

Sing a new song to the Lord;

let the whole earth sing to the Lord.

Sing to the Lord, bless his name;

proclaim his salvation from day to day.

Declare his glory among the nations,

his wondrous works among all peoples.

For the Lord is great and is highly praised;

he is feared above all gods.

For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols,

but the Lord made the heavens.

Splendor and majesty are before him;

strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

Ascribe to the Lord, you families of the peoples,

ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.

Ascribe to the Lord the glory of his name;

bring an offering and enter his courts.

Worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness;

let the whole earth tremble before him.

Say among the nations, “The Lord reigns.

The world is firmly established; it cannot be shaken.

He judges the peoples fairly.”

Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice;

let the sea and all that fills it resound.

Let the fields and everything in them celebrate.

Then all the trees of the forest will shout for joy

before the Lord, for he is coming—

for he is coming to judge the earth.

He will judge the world with righteousness

and the peoples with his faithfulness.
