Rev Peter W NimmoOpening Prayers for Epiphany of the Lord, Years A, B and CPart of a series of opening prayers for Sundays in the Revised Common Lectionary. They take their inspiration from the Scripture readings in the Lectionary. Worship leaders are welcome to use them for worship, but if you print or display any part of them, please credit the author. Comments welcome.The following prayers are for based on the readings for the <a href="https://lectionary.library.vanderbilt.edu/texts/?y=384&z=e&d=12" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Epiphany of the Lord</a>, where the Gospel is the story of the Wise Men meeting Herod, and worshipping the baby in Bethlehem, and returning by another road. Where this is not a Sunday you may wish to transfer it to the previous Sunday or the next Sunday. Alterniatively, you might wish to preach on the passage during the Christmas season.The prayers are based on Isaiah 60:1-6, Psalm 72:1-7, 10-14, Ephesians 3:1-12 and Matthew 2:1-12. The readings are the same for all three years.Call to worshipLift up your eyes, and look around!God’s people are gathering.cf Psalm 60.4So let us worship God.Prayer of ApproachLord of light,we praise you,for you are the one who casts away the darknesswhich covers our lives, and our world.Yours is the light which illuminates that which is goodin all the nations of the world.In this time of worshipwe lift our eyes to your light.We rejoice in your gloryand in the mystery of the salvation of the worldyou have brought through Jesus Christ. As the Wise Men came seeking the Christ Childkindle within us a desire to seek him anewand to make new discoveriesof his truth and his glory.May the Star of Bethlehemlead us to worship the Light of the World.ConfessionGod of infinite grace,in the gift you gave us at Bethlehemyou offer us the boundless riches of Christ.Yet we are slow to offer all that we have.The Wise Men left home to seek the truth;but we are too often content to stay where we are comfortable.King Herod claimed he wanted to worship the child;and too often, we are taken in by plausible lies. We ask for your forgivenessfor all the ways we fall shortin generosity,in courage,and in failing to seek and to heed your truth.Give us time to amend our livesand may your Spirit to enable usto live more fullyin the light of your Word made flesh.silenceSupplicationWhat shall we give you, O Lordfor all that you have given us in Jesus Christ?The wealth of all nations would not be sufficient!In the bleak midwinter,the Wise Men brought their gold, frankincense, and myrrh.So what may we bring you, poor as we are?What else, but a heart to follow Jesus! So grant us boldness and confidencein our faith in the promises of Jesus.Give us the courage to take another roadif that is where you are leading us on our journey of life.And may we thrill and rejoiceas your light dawns on us anew every day.We pray this in the name of Jesus Christ,the Light of the World.

Anyway, I don't really want to write about that again so instead let's talk about Job. This is a kind of disturbing little story.

After the life of Jesus. After the destruction of the Temple. After Christians and Jews became distinct religions. After the writing of Mark, Matthew, Luke, Acts, all of Paul's letters, and most of the other Epistles. After decades of development in Christian doctrine and practice. As a result, it's sometimes more a theological document than a narrative one.<a href="https://lectionaryoutloud.wordpress.com/2024/08/16/after/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://lectionaryoutloud.wordpress.com/2024/08/16/after/</a>

Much of the population did not have access to private cooking facilities so they bought their meals at small shops or street side stands. Some of the options may have been finger foods that could be eaten without bowls or utensils, but soups, stews, and porridges were also common offerings and these would have been served in clay bowls.<a href="https://lectionaryoutloud.wordpress.com/2024/06/01/jars/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://lectionaryoutloud.wordpress.com/2024/06/01/jars/</a>

Rivikah<a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Lectionary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Lectionary</a> post: Born againEnglish lacks a singular second person pronoun. This was not always the case. Once we had a similar structure to French with "you" doing double duty as a plural to address groups of people and a formal mode of address. The pronoun for individuals without a requirement for formality was "thou". The English, being notoriously formal and stuffy, gradually dropped "thou" in favor of addressing everyone formally.<a href="https://lectionaryoutloud.wordpress.com/2024/05/24/born-again/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://lectionaryoutloud.wordpress.com/2024/05/24/born-again/</a>

Or at least, that's how we read it. But what do the disciples hear? Jesus is telling The disciples that he is going away and will send someone else.

Look! “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
