At the Feet of the Teacher | Clean and Unclean - Mark 7:1-23

October 27, 2024 • Sara Jane Nixon • Mark 7:1–23

 

(prayer) It is easy to confuse zealously taught tradition with your Word, O God, to confuse man-made codes with true righteousness. Father, give me an insatiable hunger for your Word, and let it anchor me to your Will. I want no person, nor my own wayward heart, to deceive me. Help me never to rationalize behavior that is contrary to your expressed Will, help me never to be shackled by the chains of human tradition. And most of all, Lord, help me to be true to your Word and faithful to your Ways.
