c.f. readings for Easter 5
Acts
14.19-27: Some
Jewish leaders arrived from Pisidian Antioch and Iconium. They turned the people
of Lycaonia against Paul and Barnabas. The people stoned Paul and, thinking he
was dead, dragged him outside the town. The disciples gathered around Paul's
body. As they did so, he stood up. The next day he and Barnabas went to the town
of Derbe. After Derbe, they went back to Pisidian Antioch via Lystra and Iconium. In
each place they encouraged the believers to persevere in the faith, especially
during difficult times in their lives. In each place they also appointed
elders to be church leaders. Eventually Paul and Barnabas arrived back in Syrian
Antioch, where they gave an account of how God had opened the door of faith to
non-Jewish people
Jesus, please help me persevere in the faith, like Paul and Barnabas
My
recording of this reading
Psalm
145: I will give you glory,
O God my king. I will bless your name day after day. The Lord is great, worthy
of all praise. His greatness cannot be measured. Age to age shall proclaim your
works, shall speak of your splendor and glory. The Lord is kind and full of
compassion, slow to anger, abounding in love. How good is the Lord to all,
compassionate to all his creatures. All
your creatures shall thank you, O Lord, and tell all the world of your love.
The Lord is faithful in all his words and loving in all his deeds. The Lord
supports all who fall and raises all who are bowed down. The eyes of all
creatures look to you and you give them their food each day. The Lord is close
to all who call him, who call on him from their hearts. Let the whole world
bless the Lord's holy name, for ever, for ages unending.
Thank you, Lord, for your love. Thank you for your love

Revelation
21.1-4: Then I saw a
new heaven and a new earth. The first heaven and the first earth had disappeared
now, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem,
coming down from God out of heaven, as beautiful as a bride all dressed for her
husband. I heard a voice call from the throne: "You see this city? Here God
lives among people. He will make his home among them. They shall be his people.
He will be their God. His name is God-with-them. He will wipe away all tears
from their eyes. There
will be no more death, no more sadness. The world of the past has gone
Jesus, may the thought of heaven give us courage here on earth
Listen
John
13.34-35: Jesus said to
his disciples at the meal "I give you a new commandment: love one another. Just
as I have loved you, you also must love one another. By this love you
have for one another, everyone will know that you are my disciples".
Jesus, please help all Christians to love one another as you have loved us
Listen
Reflection on the above readings: Message from Jesus today is basic: "Be encouraged by the thought of Heaven ... and in the meantime ... love one another as I have loved you"

2 Kings
5: Naaman was an army commander for the
king of Aram.
Naaman enjoyed success and favor, but he was a leper. He heard about Elisha and the king sent him to
Elisha
with gifts of gold, silver and garments to request healing. When Naaman reached Elisha's house,
Elisha sent him a message: "Bathe 7 times in the Jordan River." At first Naaman was angry at this message,
having expected Elisha to see and heal him personally. But then he humbly bathed 7 times in the
Jordan
and his flesh became clean once more.
Elisha declined Naaman's gifts.
But after Naaman left Elisha, Elisha's servant Gehazi
caught up with Naaman and deceitfully obtained some silver. Elisha confronted Gehazi about this
and Gehazi became a leper.
Dear God, please heal everyone
who has leprosy
My
recording of this reading
Psalm
127: If the Lord does not build the house, in vain do its builders
labor. If the Lord does not watch over the city,
in vain does the watchman keep vigil. Success comes not from earlier rising or from
going later to rest,
but from the Lord's blessing. Success is from the Lord
who blesses the womb of his beloved while she sleeps. Truly, children are a gift from the Lord,
a blessing, the fruit of the womb.
Lord, many people these days
don't want children. Please help such people understand that children are
a blessing
Listen
Romans
8.35-39: Nothing can separate us from the love of

your love
Listen
Luke
3.10-14: People asked John the Baptist how they should
reform their lives.
He replied: "If anyone has extra clothing, share with people who have none.
If anyone has plenty to eat, share with people who have nothing". Tax collectors asked John what they should do.
He replied "Don't cheat anyone". Soldiers asked him "What about us? What
must we do?"
He replied "No bullying. No extortion. Be content with your pay"
Jesus, what about me? What should I do?

2 Kings 4:
A poor widow whose husband had been a
prophet asked Elisha for help when a creditor demanded her two sons
as slaves. All she had was a small pot of oil, not enough
to pay her debts.
Elisha told her to get many jars,
and start pouring oil from the pot into the jars. As she and her sons did this,
the oil did not
run out.
Elisha told her to sell the oil to pay off her debts. At another time Elisha brought back to
life a dead child. He also once brought about a miraculous
multiplication of bread.
Dear God, you once worked
miracles by the prayers of Elisha.
Please let miracles be done in our day.
My
recording of this reading
Psalm
126: When the Lord delivered Zion from bondage,
it seemed like a dream.
Then was our mouth filled with laughter,
on our lips there were songs. What marvels the Lord worked for
us.
Indeed we were glad. Those who are sowing in tears
will sing when they reap. They go out, full of tears, carrying seed for
the sowing.
They come back, full of song, carrying their sheaves.
Dear God, please bless all
people who are sorrowful as they work

Romans 8.26-29:
When we are not sure of what to say in prayer,
we ask the Spirit to pray in us. We know that by turning everything to their
good, God blesses everyone who loves him. God the Father wants us to become living
images of his Son, so that his Son will be the eldest of many brothers and
sisters
Jesus, brother Jesus, please help me to be
more like you
Listen
Matthew
2.13-23: After the wise men left Bethlehem,
an angel appeared to Joseph in a dream and said.
"Go quickly to Egypt,
because Herod wants to kill the child". That same night, Joseph got up
and set out for Egypt with Mary and Jesus.
Herod was angry after being tricked by the wise men.
He got his soldiers to kill all baby boys two years old or younger in
Bethlehem. After Herod died some months later,
an angel appeared to Joseph in a dream
and told him to return to Israel. Joseph, Mary and Jesus moved to the town of
Nazareth,
thus fulfilling the prophecy about the Saviour:
"He will be called a Nazarene".
Jesus, you were once a refugee. Please bless all refugees in the world today

2 Kings 2, 3:
The Lord revealed to Elisha and other
prophets
that Elijah would be taken up to heaven in a whirlwind.
Elisha said to Elijah
"Let me inherit a double share of your spirit."
Then a chariot of fire appeared with horses of fire,
and Elijah went up to heaven in a
whirlwind.
The spirit of Elijah then came to rest on Elisha
and he began to do miracles by the power of the Lord.
Holy Spirit of God, please
increase your influence in my life

Zion, that cannot be shaken. Jerusalem, the mountains surround her,
so the Lord surrounds his people, now and forever.

Listen
Romans
8.14-21: Everyone moved by the Spirit is a child of
God.
The Spirit lets us use children's language to speak to God tenderly as "Abba, Father".
Since we are God's children, we are also his
heirs, coheirs with Jesus,
sharing his suffering so as to share his glory. What we suffer in this life can never be
compared with the glorious life we will have in heaven. The whole of creation looks forward to sharing
the same glory, to sharing immortality
Abba, Father,
may everyone love and honor you.
Help everyone get to heaven

Luke 3.1-6: In the 15th year of the Roman Emperor
Tiberius Caesar, when Pontius Pilate was governor of Judaea, Herod was
ruler of Galilee and during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas,
God's message entered the heart of John son of Zechariah in the wilderness.
John went through the whole Jordan River area
proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. This had been foretold by the prophet Isaiah
when he said
"A voice cries in the wilderness:
Prepare a way for the Lord"
Jesus, help us prepare your way, like
John

2 Kings 1: Ahaziah, king of Israel, was seriously ill
after a fall.
He tried to send messengers to the temple of a false god
to ask about his future. But the Lord sent Elijah the prophet to
intercept the messengers
and tell them that the king would die. The king sent 50 soldiers to arrest Elijah
but as they approached Elijah, fire from heaven destroyed them. The king sent another 50 soldiers.
They too were destroyed by fire from heaven. A third group of 50 was sent. They begged
Elijah to spare them.
The Lord told Elijah to go with them to the king. Elijah then told the king to his face that he
would soon die
because he had tried to ask a false god about his future.
Not long after this, Ahaziah died.
Dear Lord, please don't let us
ever get involved
with false religion
My
recording of this reading
Psalm
124: "If the Lord had not been on our
side",
this is Israel's song. If the Lord had not been on our side
when people rose against us, then would they have swallowed us alive
when they were angry with us. Blessed be the Lord who did not let us become
a prey for their teeth. Our life, like a bird, has escaped
from the snare of the hunter. Indeed the snare has been broken
and we have escaped. Our help is in the name of the Lord
who made heaven and earth.
Thank you, Lord,
for all the times you have rescued me from trouble

Acts
1.15-26: (for
today's Feast of Saint Matthias)
During these days, Peter spoke to a group of about 120 disciples:
"As you know, Judas hanged himself after betraying Jesus. We must now
choose someone to take Judas' place, someone who has been with us since
the time when John was baptizing". Two men were nominated, Joseph and
Matthias.
After prayer was offered, Matthias was chosen. He was listed as one of the
12 apostles
Jesus, please protect your church from
betrayal and disloyalty
Listen
Matthew
2.1-12: Jesus was born in the town of Bethlehem,
during the reign of King Herod. Some months after Jesus' birth,
several wise men from the East came to Jerusalem. They said "Where is the infant king
of the Jews?
We saw his star as it rose and we have come to offer him honor." King Herod felt threatened by this news.
He knew from the Scriptures that the promised Saviour would be born
in Bethlehem. So Herod sent the wise men to Bethlehem,
pretending that he too would like to offer honor to the child. The wise men headed for Bethlehem, guided by
the star.
The star filled them with joy.
The star stopped over the place where the child was. The wise men fell to their knees and honored
the child.
They offered him gifts of gold, incense and myrrh. Then they returned to their own country by a
different way,
having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod.
Jesus,
help me to honor
you like the wise men

22: Some false prophets encouraged the king of

Ahab, the king of Israel, died in the war.

Psalm
123: To you have I lifted up my eyes,
you who dwell in the heavens. My eyes, like the eyes of slaves
on the hand of their lords. Like the eyes of a servant on the hand of her
mistress,
so our eyes are on the Lord our God till he show us mercy. Have mercy on us, Lord, have mercy.

2.21-32: When the baby was circumcised on the 8th day,
he was given the name Jesus, the name the angel had given him 9 months
before. When Jesus was 40 days old, his parents took
him to the Temple in Jerusalem to present him to the Lord, as the Law
required. In Jerusalem there was an old man named
Simeon. The Holy Spirit had revealed to him that before he died, he
would see the Christ of the Lord. Prompted by the Spirit, he came
to the Temple, took Jesus in his arms and praised God, saying:
"Now, Master, you can let your servant go in peace, for my eyes have
seen the Savior. He is a light to enlighten the pagans, and he is the
glory of your people Israel"
Jesus, true Light of the world, we praise you

So they quickly went and found Mary and
Joseph, and the baby lying in a manger. People who heard the shepherds
talk about the angels were amazed. As for Mary, she treasured every moment of
what had happened
and pondered the whole event in her heart. The shepherds went back to their fields
glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen.
