Prayer: I haven’t had breakfast yet. But it would be a while before my stomach started growling. I’m thinking of the apostles walking through the grainfields and eating the kernels. I am praying for those who will not have breakfast this morning. May I be an instrument of your caring, Lord. I am also thinking about the broader picture of considering that everything I say or do today will be evidence of my belief that “The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath” and every other day of the week as well. May I walk today as You would have me walk, Lord.
