The work of elders in the faith ... Is that you?

Morning: Psalm 86; Genesis 28:10-17; John 1:43-51

Evening: Psalms 15, 67; Isaiah 66:1-2, 18-23; 1 Peter 5:1-11

St. Peter speaks eloquently to elders in the faith: “Tend the flock of God ... Do not lord it over those in your charge, but be examples to the flock ... You who are younger must accept the authority of the elders ... Clothe yourselves with humility in your dealings with one another ... Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God ... Cast all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you ... The God of all grace ... will himself restore, support, strengthen, and establish you. To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen.”
