14th December 2021

Today's video comes from Melissa who talks of her Advent & Christmas light.

Daily Reading
Zephaniah 3.1-2, 9-13

3Ah, soiled, defiled,
   oppressing city! 
2 It has listened to no voice;
   it has accepted no correction.
It has not trusted in the Lord;
   it has not drawn near to its God. 

9 At that time I will change the speech of the peoples
   to a pure speech,
that all of them may call on the name of the Lord
   and serve him with one accord. 
10 From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia*
   my suppliants, my scattered ones,
   shall bring my offering. 

11 On that day you shall not be put to shame
   because of all the deeds by which you have rebelled against me;
for then I will remove from your midst
   your proudly exultant ones,
and you shall no longer be haughty
   in my holy mountain. 
12 For I will leave in the midst of you
   a people humble and lowly.
They shall seek refuge in the name of the Lord— 
13   the remnant of Israel;
they shall do no wrong
   and utter no lies,
nor shall a deceitful tongue
   be found in their mouths.
Then they will pasture and lie down,
   and no one shall make them afraid. 

Matthew 21:28-32
‘What do you think? A man had two sons; he went to the first and said, “Son, go and work in the vineyard today.” He answered, “I will not”; but later he changed his mind and went. The father went to the second and said the same; and he answered, “I go, sir”; but he did not go. Which of the two did the will of his father?’ They said, ‘The first.’ Jesus said to them, ‘Truly I tell you, the tax-collectors and the prostitutes are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you. For John came to you in the way of righteousness and you did not believe him, but the tax-collectors and the prostitutes believed him; and even after you saw it, you did not change your minds and believe him.
​
Prayer for the day:
​
Jesus, as a baby you were a refugee; as a man you had no place to lay your head. Make us aware of the homeless on our streets and of families without adequate shelter. Give us the wisdom to deal with the causes of these problems, that all may work together for better living conditions.
