Psalms 79:11

6 Advent Readings by Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth

The psalms are a source of wisdom and encouragement. Across the 150 chapters, there are words of comfort and joy to speak into almost any circumstance in life. (Being Over Doing - Susie Holt)

When the daily tasks of motherhood seem to only get busier, the Bible keeps us grounded in our true identity and purpose. Celebrate how God is continuing to do something new in your life by the way you love, nurture, and lead.

"Canonical Hours" are a centuries-old tradition where Christians pause to pray at specific times. This practice grew from ancient Jewish customs; for instance, Psalm 119 mentions praising God seven times daily. In the Old Testament, priests offered sacrifices morning and night, and the New Testament shows Jesus' followers continuing this by heading to the Temple for "afternoon prayers." Names vary by Christian tradition: Liturgy of the Hours, Divine Office, Daily Office, Horologion, etc. This plan compiles the psalms and canticles of each day, so that you can participate in this ancient tradition of God's people.
