Celebrant: The Lord be with you.
People: And also with you.
Celebrant: Let us pray.
Grant to us, Lord, we pray, the spirit to think and do always those things that are right,
that we, who cannot exist without you, may by you be enabled to live according to your
will; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one
God, for ever and ever. Amen.
First Reading: 1 Kings 19:4-8
All sit.
But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a broom
tree; and he asked that he might die, saying, “It is enough; now, O Lord, take away my life; for I
am no better than my fathers.” And he lay down and slept under a broom tree; and behold, an angel
touched him, and said to him, “Arise and eat.” And he looked, and behold, there was at his head
a cake baked on hot stones and a jar of water. And he ate and drank, and lay down again. And the
angel of the Lord came again a second time, and touched him, and said, “Arise and eat, else the
journey will be too great for you.” And he arose, and ate and drank, and went in the strength of that
food forty days and forty nights to Horeb the mount of God.

Second Reading: Ephesians 4:25—5:2
Therefore, putting away falsehood, let every one speak the truth with his neighbor, for we
are members one of another. Be angry but do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your
anger, and give no opportunity to the devil. Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him
labor, doing honest work with his hands, so that he may be able to give to those in need.
Let no evil talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for edifying, as fits the
occasion, that it may impart grace to those who hear. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of
God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness and wrath and
anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, with all malice, and be kind to one
another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you. Therefore be
imitators of God, as beloved children. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself
up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

J esus said to them, “I am the bread of life; he who comes to me shall not hunger, and
he who believes in me shall never thirst. The Jews then murmured at him, because he
said, “I am the bread which came down from heaven.” They said, “Is not this Jesus, the
son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How does he now say, ‘I have come
down from heaven’?” Jesus answered them, “Do not murmur among yourselves. No one
can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him; and I will raise him up at the
last day. It is written in the prophets, ‘And they shall all be taught by God.’ Every one
who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me. Not that any one has seen the
Father except him who is from God; he has seen the Father. Truly, truly, I say to you, he
who believes has eternal life. I am the bread of life. Your fathers ate the manna in the
6
wilderness, and they died. This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that a man
may eat of it and not die. I am the living bread which came down from heaven; if any one
eats of this bread, he will live for ever; and the bread which I shall give for the life of the
world is my flesh.”.

ON RECEIVING COMMUNION:
All baptized Christians who are in love and charity with their neighbors are invited to the
Lord’s table. If you do not wish to receive, you are invited to come forward for a blessing
in the name of Christ—simply cross your arms over your chest to let the servers know
that you will not be receiving.
One or more of the following prayers, or some other, may be said quietly or
silently before recieving:
We do not presume to come to this thy Table, O merciful Lord, trusting in our own
righteousness, but in thy manifold and great mercies. We are not worthy so much as to
gather up the crumbs under thy Table. But thou art the same Lord whose property is
always to have mercy: Grant us therefore, gracious Lord, so to eat the flesh of thy dear Son
Jesus Christ, and to drink his blood, that our sinful bodies may be made clean by his body,
and our souls washed through his most precious blood, and that we may evermore dwell in
him, and he in us. Amen (Prayer of Humble Access from p. 82 of the 1928 BCP, a revised
version of which is found on p. 337 of the 1979 BCP)
4
Be present, be present, O Jesus, our great High Priest, as you were present with your
disciples, and be known to us in the breaking of bread; who live and reign with the Father
and the Holy Spirit, now and for ever. Amen (a prayer before recieving communion which
can be found among the many prayers of the 1979 BCP, p. 834).

A Note on Today’s Readings
Proper 14, Year B
Welcome to St. Francis Church. We continue to hear Jesus’ discourse on the bread of life today.
Continuing last week’s theme of Jesus himself as the source of nourishment for our new life in him,
a further level of meaning is introduced. This was astounding to Jesus’ hearers (and would be to us
if we were not already so used to it), for he is not simply speaking of a “spiritual” communion with
him. He is speaking of his own flesh, his own life. He is the food of eternal life.
The first reading tells of Elijah the prophet fleeing through the wilderness. He is starving and begs
God to let him die. But God instead provides food for him in the wilderness and Elijah is able to
complete his pilgrimage to the mount of God.
Today’s reading from the Letter to the Ephesians continues from last week’s discussion of our unity
in the Spirit, to the new way of living which is the result of that unity, and to its deepest and most
profound implication: namely, our new life is one identity, both as individuals and as a people, with
Jesus himself. What he is, we are becoming.
In the Eucharist we take the material things of this world and, in giving thanks over them, we offer
them to be taken up into the life of God. And this is true also of our selves who are represented by
the bread and wine. We are part of a people whose story goes back to the ancient Hebrews: a people
who have at the center of our existence God calling us to be bearers of the divine presence in the
world.

Good News Daily

Volume IX August 9-15, 2009 Number 31
Sunday, August 9
Psalm 66 Praise our God, O peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard; he has preserved our lives
and kept our feet from slipping. Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love
from me. (vv.8-9, 20 NIV)
I have been passing through a time of trouble and grief—a husband with life threatening illness, my
own health issues, and a friendship in conflict. Those brought me physically down to a point where
my body ached with pain and fatigue. I began to despair that at age 68 the “good stuff” was over!
I began to read the Psalms, drinking them in with my heart, learning I didn’t know what the “good
stuff” really is! The Psalms take us from an alien in despair of loneliness to assurance that we may be
attacked but not kept down. Our God never sleeps. Now I: “Praise our God… He has preserved my
life and kept my feet from slipping. Praise be to God, who had not rejected my prayer or withheld His
love from me.” I am learning that, as Larry Crabb writes in Shattered Dreams (page 3), “The greatest
blessing is no longer the blessing of a good life. It never was. It is the blessing of an encounter with
God. It always has been.”
2 Samuel 13:1-22; Psalm 67; Romans 15:1-13; John 3:22-36
Monday, August 10
Psalms 89:1-18 “Blessed are the people who know the passwords of praise, who shout on parade
in the bright presence of God. Delighted they dance all day long; they know who you are, what you
do—they can’t keep it quiet! Your vibrant beauty has gotten inside us—you’ve been so good to us!
We’re walking on air.” (vv.15-17 The Message)
I have just returned from a family visit with my children and grandchildren. Some of them know the
“passwords of praise and shout on parade.” I watched and celebrated in my heart as their children
said their lines in their Christian Montessori School play. I attended a Bible study with another and
thanked God for that. Being part of their lives for that time, I could see the “radiant beauty” of Jesus
in their community as they lovingly serve each other and worship him. I pray to the Holy God of
Israel, our King, to woo to Him family members and others who do not yet know the “passwords of
praise.” Some have said the words and thought the thoughts of salvation, but don’t yet recognize the
joy of having His vibrant beauty inside them. I wait with the joy of anticipation for the day they do!
“Your love, God, is my song, and I’ll sing it! I’m forever telling anyone how faithful you are” (vv.1-
2).
2 Samuel 13:23-39; Acts 20:17-38; Mark 9:42-50
Tuesday, August 11
2 Samuel 14:1-20 “Like water spilled on the ground, which cannot be recovered, so we must die.
But God does not take away life; instead he devises ways so that a banished person may not remain
estranged from him.” (v.14 NIV)
Someone dear to me will “banish” himself when he feels shame. He will often stay banished—
withdrawn—until someone else lovingly makes a gesture inviting him to come back into relationship.
Until I read this Scripture, I struggled with the question of whether I was enabling another’s immature
behavior. Reading 2 Samuel 14:14 showed me God’s way. If God “devises ways that a banished
person may not remain estranged…” can I not follow Him?
15
Keep reading today’s lesson, friend! Psalm 100:3-5 continues to teach us: “It is he who made us,
and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his
courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. For the Lord is good and his love endures
forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.” Our Shepherd will show us the way—His
way!
Psalms 97, 99, 100; Acts 21:1-14; Mark 10:1-16
Wednesday, August 12
Mark 10:17-31 Jesus looked at him and loved him. “One thing you lack,” he said. “Go and sell
everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow
me.” (v.21)
Jesus asks me too to give up what I already claim as mine to receive what he has for me, to follow
him instead of my own inclinations—instead of leaning on my own understanding. What keeps me
from totally, absolutely giving my all? Time, energy, resources? Heart, mind, body? What do I resist
losing that could compare to the gain! No—none of those. I realize my greatest barrier between me
and my Savior’s will has been fear. And my greatest fear was fear of men: “Fear of men will prove
to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe” (Proverbs 29:25). Jesus already knew how
the rich, young man would respond; yet he “looked at him and loved him.” What a blessing to have
a God who, even in our fear, stubbornness, and willfulness, looks at us and loves us!
2 Samuel 14:21-33; Psalms 101, 109; Acts 21:15-26
Thursday, August 13
2 Samuel 15:1-18 A messenger came and told David, “The hearts of the men of Israel are with
Absalom.” Then David said to all his officials with him in Jerusalem, “Come! We must flee, or none
of us will escape from Absalom.” (vv.13-14)
What despair David, a father, must have felt at his son Absalom’s treachery! When I am discouraged
or let down by men, I can look to another of our readings for today, Psalm 105, to give me a path to
find hope and restoration in the Lord.
Look and Remember:
Look to the Lord and His strength; seek His face always (v.4).
Remember His wonders, miracles, and judgments (v.5).
Remember His covenants; He remembers them forever (v.8).
Remember He confirms (v.10).
Remember He protects; He allowed no one to oppress them (v.14).
Remember He sends ahead of us (v.17).
Psalm 105:1-22; Acts 21:27-36; Mark 10:32-45
Friday, August 14
Psalm 102 Hear my prayer, O Lord; let my cry for help come to you. Do not hide your face from me
when I am in distress. Turn you ear to me; when I call, answer me quickly. For my days vanish like
smoke; my bones burn like glowing embers. My heart is blighted and withered like grass” (vv.1-4a)
Recently criticized harshly by someone close to me, I withdrew—blinded by pain. I turned inward
with only the very weakest cries for the Lord. I laid awake; I became like a bird alone on a roof
(v.7).
16
Today’s readings continue from Psalm 102 to Acts by telling of two men struck by blindness. Each
case was a tale of steadfast faith in times of darkness. Bartemaus called out. Jesus healed him. Even
my weak cry was answered with the comfort of his presence.
Lord, “In the beginning you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your
hands” (Psalm 102:25). So too, are we, the work of Your hands. So too, have You laid a foundation
of hope and faith in our hearts. You take the blindfolds off our eyes. We can see you in our lives. You
will “respond to prayer of the destitute” and not “despise” our pleas (v.17).
2 Samuel 15:19-37; Acts 21:37—22:16; Mark 10:46-52
Saturday, August 15
Psalm 107:33-43, 108 He gave the poor a safe place to live, treated their clans like well-cared-for
sheep. Good people see this and are glad; bad people are speechless, stopped in their tracks. If you
are really wise, you’ll think this over—it’s time you appreciated God’s deep love. (vv.40b-43 The
Message)
A song comes to mind. It begins, “Your deep, deep love washes over me. Your deep, deep love fills
my every need. How I long to hear Your voice call out my name. It draws me to your deep, deep
love… cleanses my sin…. brings a peace within.” Lord, “Your deep, deep love” is an antidote for
sleepless nights, the aches and pains of growing older. It brings peace in the midst of relationship
strife and sanity when I’m overwhelmed by the expectations of others and my own commitments. In
those times when I want to stop the world and get off, I can stop myself, be still, receive the washing
over of His deep, deep love, and let Him recalibrate my day, my week, my life. Like a “well-cared-for
sheep,” I can follow my Shepherd.
2 Samuel 16:1-23; Acts 22:17-29; Mark 11:1-11
