Walk On Water (WOW) quote for today
"GOD governs in the affairs of Man. And if a sparrow can not fall to the ground without his notice, is it probable that an Empire can rise without his aid."
- Benjamin Franklin - Constitutional Convention of 1787
Canticle of Zechariah
Blessed be the Lord the GOD of Israel, for he has visited His people, He has set them free, and He has established for us a saving power in the House of His Servant David, just as He proclaimed, by the mouth of His Holy Prophets from ancient time, that he would save us from our enemies and from the hands of all who hates us, and show faithful love to our Ancestors, and so keep in mind His Holy Covenant.
This was the Oath He swore to our Father Abraham, that He would grant us, free from fear, to be delivered from the Hands of our Enemies, to serve Him in Holiness and uprightness in His presence, in all our days. And you little child, shall be called Prophet of the Most High, for you will go before the Lord to prepare a way for Him, to give His people knowledge of Salvation through the forgiveness their sins, because of the Faithful Love of our GOD in which the rising Sun has come from on high to visit us, to give light to those who live in darkness and the shadow dark as death, and to guide our feet in to the way of peace. Amen.
PRAYER:
Almighty GOD, at the beginnings of our salvation, when Mary conceived your Son and brought him forth in to the world, you placed them under Joseph's watchful care.
May his prayer still help your Church to be an equally faithful guardian of your mysteries and a sign of CHRIST to mankind.
Through Christ our Lord,
