God's Daily Minute ~2-9-2020
February Ninth ~ God's Daily Minute
“And it shall come to
pass, that before they call, I will answer.” – Isa. 65:24 ~
Our Heavenly Father, we thank Thee for our home and our work
and our friends. The morning calls us to the joy and toil and trial of a new
day, and we want to begin in right, in the sense of Thy nearness and care.
Give us strength to meet the common duties of the day, and
to live with our kindred and friends happily and helpfully. In our school life,
in our home-making, and in our business, may we be guided by the purposes of
Jesus. If it be Thy good will, keep us from great temptation to do wrong; and
furnish us with strength for the trials which Thou willest us to endure.
May Thy healing and comfort abide with those we live, who
are in sorrow and sickness; make them brave and hopeful.
We pray Thee to prosper us in our work, in order that we may
use all our gains for the good of others.
May our home and family be the abiding place of Him Who
promised to be in the midst of those who love Him. In His Name. Amen.

January Twenty-Eighth ~ God's Daily Minute
“I was glad when they
said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord. Our feet shall stand within
Thy gates, O Jerusalem. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. They prosper that love
Thee. Because of the house of the Lord our God I will seek Thy good.” – Ps.
122: 1-2; 6; 9 ~
For Sunday Morning
O LORD, Jesus Christ, Who on this day didst arise from the
grave, send forth Thy quickening Spirit, we beseech Thee, upon Thy people, that
they may rise to newness of life. Drive away worldly cares, lift up our minds
to high and noble thoughts, and to spiritual desires.
Hear the prayers of all that are offered in public and in
private, for themselves and for their brethren. Grant that all who can may
attend the public worship of Thy church, and approach Thee with reverence and
confidence. Bless the ministrations of Thy Word and Sacraments. Inspire those
who speak and act in Thy name, with the spirit of truth, and love, and power.
Meet the varied needs and fulfil the desires of Thy people.
Bind us in fellowship one with another, as with Thy self. Enable us to go forth
from the worship and instruction of Thy holy day with renewed strength and
courage to perform the duties and bear the trials which are appointed for us.
Grant this, and all our petitions, for Thy Holy Name’s sake.
Amen

“See, I am sending you out like sheep into the midst of wolves; so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves. Beware of them, for they will hand you over to councils and flog you in their synagogues; and you will be dragged before governors and kings because of me, as a testimony to them and the Gentiles. When they hand you over, do not worry about how you are to speak or what you are to say; for what you are to say will be given to you at that time; for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.”
—Matthew 10:16–20

January Ninth ~ God's Daily Minute
Dear heavenly Father, as we gather at Thy feet to-day as a
family, we ask Thy blessing on our home and Thy guidance to each one during the
hours of this day. Help us to realize Thy nearness to us at this hour. May we
realize Thy reality, and be conscious of the fact that Thou art not a God afar
off—the Great King of Heaven, the Mighty Judge of all the earth enthroned in
infinite space above us, but that we can claim Thee as our Saviour and our
Friend.
Help us throughout this day to realize that Thou canst be
nearer to each one of us than the nearest and dearest of friends.
Let us hear Thy voice to-day. Let us feel the inspiration of
Thy presence, and with willing feet enable us to walk in the path on which Thy
light and blessing can fall.
Give us this day some work to do for others, some kindly
word to speak, some helpful unselfish deed to fulfil in Thy Name. Be with us
each and every hour of this day, and may we so live that Thy will may be done
and Thy Kingdom come within our hearts. Amen.

By: James Byrd
I.The Oracle
A. Hexagram 63 is Ji Ji, or Already Fording. Other interpretations are After Completion and Already Completed. Its lower trigram is Li: radiance or fire. Its upper trigram is Kan: gorge or water.
B. The Judgment
1. After Completion. Success in small matters.Perseverance furthers.

In the end disorder.
C. The Image

2. Thus the superior man

And arms himself against it in advance.
II. Another interpretation
"Confucius/Legge: Progress and success in small matters, with advantage in firm correctness. The dynamic and magnetic lines are correctly arranged, each in its proper place. There has been good fortune in the beginning because the magnetic second line is in the center. In the end there is a cessation of effort, and disorder arises. The course that led to rule and order is now exhausted."

Good Morning H-13
Hexagram 13

By: James Byrd
I.The Oracle
A. Hexagram 13 is Tong Ren or Concording People. Additional interpretations include Fellowship with Men and Gathering Men. the lower trigram is Li: radiance or fire. The upper trigram is Qian: force or heaven.
B. The Judgment
1. Fellowship with Men in the open.Success.
2. It furthers one to cross the great water.
The perseverance of the superior man furthers.
C. The Image
1. Heaven together with fire:The image of Fellowship with Men.
2. Thus the superior man organizes the clans
And makes distinctions between things.
II. My interpretation
A. "Fellowship"
With this hexagram, we see a man who for all apparent reasons
joins in fellowship with others who are somewhat not of his kind. He does so because
they are within close proximity to his dwelling. If he was to limit his
friendship to that of his closes family ties, there would be cause for regret,
being that his social adaptions would be somewhat limited in scope. To take it
even further, to do so would be as the tale of “The Allegory of the
Cave” by Plato, signifies. It is the story of a group of people in a cave,
and not knowing what the real world is really all about, like unto an Amazon
tribe out in the wildness but on a different scale.
It is the job of the superior man to know what is what and to
point this out preferably to the people nearby first. To know more one must
extend his or her range of knowledge of prominent current issues, not just
homegrown knowledge, not to the tune of, we only use chopsticks.
In this passage, we see a call for universal brotherhood ill
regardless of inconsistencies. To serve is to serve. Always extend service to the
betterment of all into the one.
