Daily Devotional

As a personal exercise, I’ve decided to write something each day.  I’ll be writing a reflection on one of the texts (mostly, anyway) from the Daily Office of the Revised Common Lectionary as found in the Book of Common Prayer.  Sunday’s text will come from the readings suggested in the Sunday Lectionary.  As the need suits, I might deviate from the texts of the Daily Office.
