Readings for Day 22

May 22

Psalm 145:3–4,7 Great is the LORD and most worthy of praise;     his greatness no one can fathom.  4 One generation will commend your works to another; they will tell of your mighty acts.  7 They will celebrate your abundant goodness and joyfully sing of your righteousness.

Genesis 22:14–18  So Abraham called that place The LORD Will Provide. And to this day it is said, "On the mountain of the LORD it will be provided."  15 The angel of the LORD called to Abraham from heaven a second time 16 and said, "I swear by myself, declares the LORD, that because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your only son, 17 I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies, 18 and through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed me."

Romans 12:16a,17b–18  Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited. 17 Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. 18 If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.
