John 7 : 34-40

   
34 Ye shall seek me,
and shall not find me:
and where I am, thither ye cannot come.
35 Then said the Jews among themselves,
Whither will he go, that we shall not find him?
will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles,
and teach the Gentiles?
36 What manner of saying is this that he said,
Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me:
and where I am, thither ye cannot come?
37 In the last day, that great day of the feast,
Jesus stood and cried, saying,
If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.
38 He that believeth on me,
as the scripture hath said,
out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
39 (But this spake he of the Spirit,
which they that believe on him should receive:
for the Holy Ghost was not yet given;
because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
40 Many of the people therefore,
when they heard this saying, said,
Of a truth this is the Prophet.



Today's Prayer...


Lord our God,

You have revealed your righteousness to us in the gospel,
your righteousness that comes to us through
faith and continues in faith.
Grant that we may understand your righteousness
and live by it even in a crooked generation.
Then to our joy the gospel will bear fruit.
Protect us in the midst of temptation and
conflicting opinions so that we are raised above
them and remain free,
with our thoughts on you and your true and
loving righteousness.
Your righteousness gives us hope for the many,
many people who still need help to realize that
their lives are not of passing value but of eternal worth.



In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name

Amen
