MatinsGod's Chosen One
There shall come forth a shoot
from the stump of Jesse:
and a branch shall grow out of its roots,
and the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him:
the spirit of wisdom and understanding,
the spirit of counsel and might:
the spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord.
He shall not judge by what his eyes see:
or decide by what his ears hear,
but with righteousness he shall judge the poor:
and decide with equity
for the meek of the earth.
The wolf shall dwell with the lamb:
and the leopard shall lie down with the kid,
and the calf and the lion cub together:
and a little child shall lead them.
They shall not hurt or destroy
in all my holy mountain:
for the earth shall be full
of the knowledge of the Lord
as the waters cover the sea.
New Testament Reading - Children of God
1See how very much our heavenly Father loves us, for he allows us to be called his children — think of it — and we really are! But since most people don’t know God, naturally they don’t understand that we are his children. 2Yes, dear friends, we are already God’s children, right now, and we can’t even imagine what it is going to be like later on. But we do know this, that when he comes we will be like him, as a result of seeing him as he really is. 3And everyone who really believes this will try to stay pure because Christ is pure.
