I will praise your name for ever, my king and my God.Let all your works give you thanks, O LORD,and let your faithful ones bless you.Let them discourse of the glory of your kingdomand speak of your might.R. I will praise your name for ever, my king and my God.The LORD is faithful in all his wordsand holy in all his works.The LORD lifts up all who are fallingand raises up all who are bowed down.R. I will praise your name for ever, my king and my God.Reading 2 2 THES 1:11-2:2Brothers and sisters:We always pray for you,that our God may make you worthy of his callingand powerfully bring to fulfillment every good purposeand every effort of faith,that the name of our Lord Jesusmay be glorified in you,and you in him,in accord with the grace of our God and Lord Jesus Christ.We ask you, brothers and sisters,with regard to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christand our assembling with him,not to be shaken out of your minds suddenly, or to be alarmedeither by a spirit, or by an oral statement,or by a letter allegedly from usto the effect that the day of the Lord is at hand.Gospel LK 19:1-10At that time, Jesus came to Jericho and intended to pass through the town.Now a man there named Zacchaeus,who was a chief tax collector and also a wealthy man,was seeking to see who Jesus was;but he could not see him because of the crowd,for he was short in stature.So he ran ahead and climbed asycamore tree in order to see Jesus,who was about to pass that way.When he reached the place, Jesus looked up and said,Zacchaeus, come down quickly,for today I must stay at your house.And he came down quickly andreceived him with joy.When they all saw this, they began to grumble, saying,He has gone to stay at the house of a sinner.But Zacchaeus stood there and said to the Lord,Behold, half of my possessions, Lord, I shall give to the poor,and if I have extorted anything from anyoneI shall repay it four times over.And Jesus said to him,Today salvation has come to this housebecause this man too is a descendant of Abraham.For the Son of Man has come to seekand to save what was lost. #krazy
