Morning:
As the sufferings of Christ abound in us,
so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.
The fellowship of his sufferings. Rejoice, inasmuch as ye
are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall
be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. If we be
dead with him, we shall also live with him. If children,
then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be
that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified
together.
God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of
promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an
oath: that by two immutable things, in which it was impossible
for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have
fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us. Our
Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath
loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good
hope through grace, comfort your hearts, and stablish you in
every good word and work.

Evening:
Martha, Martha, thou art careful
and troubled about many things.
Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap. .
Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not.
.Seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink,
neither be ye of doubtful mind. Your Father knoweth that
ye have need of these things.
Having food and raiment let us be therewith content. .
They that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and
into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in
destruction and perdition. For the love of money is the root of
all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from
the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
The cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and
the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it
becometh unfruitful.
Let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so
easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is
set before us.
