Daily Word
Mepkin Daily Word
Himself unwelcomed
Christ welcomes all ceaselessly
come, be healed, be free
Mepkin Daily Word
Spring cleaning is on
How about my heart and soul
The Spirit’s temple?
Mepkin Daily Word
Prodigal Father,
with wayward, resentful sons,
welcomes and calls home...
Mepkin Daily Word
with rejections, hurts
do Spiritual composting
so be life-giving
Mepkin Daily Word
Share in the Lord’s cup
Serve, not served, even suffer
Live life to the full
Mepkin Daily Word
Be Christ in the world
Be good and help those in need
In humility
Mepkin Daily Word
In the same manner
Forgiven by the Father,
Give others mercy
Mepkin Daily Word
Reconciliation:
in lieu of acted-out-rage,
acted-out-goodness!
Mepkin Daily Word
Get up, go, proclaim:
Be humble, contrite, turn back
Surrender, be free!
Mepkin Daily Word
Be holy as I
do to others as to Me
be Me as I you
