Rituals               
 
 
And he said to them, "You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God in order to establish your tradition!"
Mark 7:9


Jesus confronted the hypocrisy of the Pharisees. Certain rituals became the most important thing, rather than following God with their whole heart. Rituals can bring meaning to our walk with the Lord, but it is the actual walk with the Lord that has the value. The next time you recite a prayer or repeat a liturgy or make a holy gesture, open your heart to the love of Christ and his will for your life.


Dear Jesus,
You know when I go through the motions, in life and in worship. Forgive me. Help me to live a life of worship that obeys your commands and bears fruit in your world.
A-men
