1 Kings 8:1-7, 9-13; Psalm 132:6-10;
Mark 6:53-56

Dwelling place!

The Ark of the Covenant was the holiest symbol of God’s communication with the mutual obligation of faithfulness.

In the words and healing presence of Jesus, a new covenant, to be sealed in his blood, was being prepared. It would change the face of the earth.

Prayer: Jesus, in baptism I became a dwelling place for God through the gift of the Holy Spirit. Help me to remain faithful to this privilege by gifting myself to the care of my sisters and brothers in the world you greatly love.
