Morning:

Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God;

and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

The love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy

Ghost which is given unto us. Ye have not received the spirit

of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of

adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. The Spirit itself

beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of

God. He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in

himself.

In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because

that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we

might live through him. In whom we have redemption through his

blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his

grace. That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding

riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ

Jesus.

Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one

another.

Evening:

Reproach hath broken my heart.

Is not this the carpenter’s son? Can there any good thing

come out of Nazareth? Say we not well that thou art a

Samaritan, and hast a devil? He casteth out devils through the

prince of the devils. We know that this man is a sinner. He

deceiveth the people. This man blasphemeth. Behold a man

gluttonous, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners.

It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and

the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the

house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his

household? This is thankworthy, if a man for conscience

toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully. For even

hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us,

leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: who did

no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: who, when he was

reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not;

but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously. If ye

be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the

spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is

evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
