🌿 Reflecting on the Seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost – Year B
Tuesday, September 17, 2024

📖 Scripture Focus:
Today, we turn our hearts to Psalm 1, which speaks of the blessedness of those who “delight in the law of the Lord.” They are like trees planted by streams of water, bearing fruit in every season. This psalm invites us to root ourselves in God’s word, finding strength and nourishment in His truth.

🙏 Prayer:
Lord, help us to delight in Your word and meditate on it day and night. May we be like trees planted by Your living waters, growing in faith and bearing fruit for Your kingdom.

🌳 Reflection:
What does it mean for you to be “planted by streams of water”? Consider ways you can deepen your engagement with God’s word and allow it to nourish your soul today.
