Scriptures: Psalm 51; Mark 7:1-23
Prayer of the Day: Teacher Jesus, too often we blame external people and situations for our heartaches and brokenness. Help us to look inward to uncover and heal the things that defile: bitterness, hatred, jealousy, and greed. Help us instead to be agents of peace, hope, generosity, and love. This we pray in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Amen.
