How does your body respond when you recite today’s psalm aloud with sincerity and gusto? You’ve not read it yet? Try it now before you continue reading the rest of this meditation.
My heart beats differently when I verbally thank others, especially God! When I loudly proclaim, “Praise the LORD!”...

Lord, who is peace, help us stay close to you and follow your will and way by confession, prayer, and supplication with thanksgiving. Amen.

Resumen de la Escritura

The narrative in Exodus 32:1-14 reflects on the blindness of the people, but the focus is also placed on Yahweh’s intense anger and on Moses’ intervention. Yahweh’s mercy prevails, and Moses is revealed as the quintessential mediator. Psalm 106 recalls the folly of the people in making the golden calf. The sinfulness of the Israelites is laid to their forgetfulness. The inability and unwillingness of the people of God to remember is a damning sin that calls for a tough response. The Philippians text stresses the need for faithfulness to the gospel. Matthew’s version of the parable of the wedding banquet offers a negative example of faithfulness in the form of a guest who comes to the wedding without the proper attire.
