MORAVIAN DAILY TEXT
Third Sunday of Easter
Watchword for the week – You have been born anew, not of perishable but of imperishable seed, through the living and enduring word of God. 1 Peter 1:23
Sunday, April 19 – Acts 2:14a, 36-41; Psalm 116:1-4, 12-19; 1 Peter 1:17-23; Luke 24:13-35
I will seek the lost, and I will bring back the strays, and I will bind up the injured, and I will strengthen the weak. Ezekiel 34:16
For you were going astray like sheep, but now you have returned to the shepherd and guardian of your souls. 1 Peter 2:25
O caring Shepherd, you swing wide the gates of your pasture and welcome us into your fold. Your desire for us – each of us – never grows stale. We are amazed that you delight in us so much. May we always be thankful for your gracious love. Amen.
Belief of the Church
With the whole of Christendom, we share faith in God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. We believe and confess that God has revealed Himself once and for all in His Son Jesus Christ; that our Lord has redeemed us with whole of mankind by His death and His resurrection; and that there is no salvation apart from Him. We believe that He is present with us in the Word and the Sacrament; that He directs and unites us through His Spirit and thus forms us into a Church. We hear Him summoning us to follow Him, and pray Him to use us in His Service. He joins us together mutually so that knowing ourselves to be members of His Body we become willing to serve each other.
