Scriptures for today. Psalm 31 · Acts 7.55-60 · 1 Peter 2.2-10 · John 14.1-14
Prayer for today.
Almighty God, whose Son Jesus Christ is the resurrection and the life: raise us, who trust in him, from the death of sin to the life of righteousness, that we may seek those things which are above, where he reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.
Question for today.
The song we heard today repeats a promise God made to his people. What names have you been called by others? Which names have you given to others? What name do you most desire to hear from God?

I will change your name
You shall no longer be called
Wounded, outcast
Lonely or afraid
I will change your name
Your new name shall be
Confidence, joyfulness
Overcoming one
Faithfulness, friend of God
One who seeks my face.
