Daily Lectionary Reading: Psalm 9:1-14 (NRSV, The Message); Zechariah 2:1-5, 5:1-4 (NRSV, The Message); 1 Thessalonians 5:12-18 (NRSV, The Message)
We ask you, sisters and brothers, to respect those who labor among you, who have charge over you in Christ as your teachers. Esteem them highly, with a special love because of their work. Live in peace with each other. We urge you, sisters and brothers, to warn the idlers, cheer up the fainthearted, support the weak, and be patient with everyone. Make sure that no one repays one evil with another. Always seek what is good for each other—and for all people. Rejoice always, pray constantly, and give thanks for everything—for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
1 Thessalonians 5:12-18 (The Inclusive Language Bible, Priests for Equality)
1 Thessalonians 5:12-18 (The Inclusive Language Bible, Priests for Equality)
These words, written to encourage some faith community in Thessalonica some 2000 years ago, serve us well today. They are guidelines of practice for us in our lives together. As we are encouraged and held accountable, our ability to make a difference in our lives and in the world increases exponentially. What are the ways you might put some of these into practice?
