Daily Devotional for March 25, 2020

3/25/2020

0 Comments

 
Wednesday, March 25
by the Rev. Dr. Gary Wilkerson
 
Text: from the Orthodox Kontakion for the Departed
 
Give rest, O God, to your servant with your saints:
Where sorrow and pain are no more;
Neither sighing but life everlasting.
 
You only are immortal, the creator and maker of all:
And we are mortal formed from the dust of the earth,
And unto earth shall we return;
For so you did ordain, when you created me saying:
“Dust thou art and unto dust shalt thou return.”
 
We all go down to the dust;
and weeping o’er the grave we make our song:
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
 
Reflection:
My heart sings with the phrase, “weeping o’er the grave 
We make our song:  Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia”!
Keep making your song at all times and in all places!
 
Prayer:
Fill our hearts with your song as we weep over the grave!  Alleluia!
Amen.
 
Bio:  Gary Wilkerson is a Lutheran Pastor and member of St. Michael’s since 1973.  I enjoy singing in the choir, all music, cooking, reading, fishing, volunteering in the Senior Health Care industry, and being with family and friends.
