THE GOSPEL

John 9:1-41

He smeared the clay on his eyes and he said to him,
“Go wash in the Pool of Siloam.”

Jesus,
won’t you cleanse our
    blind eyes? …

Wash away the
    Mud? …

and move us from
unseeing souls to believers—

from bystanders to disciples,
walkers in darkness
to lamps for
your
 light.

O
let
our
souls
see!


THE FIRST READING

1 Samuel 16:1b, 6-7, 10-13a

Not as man sees does God see.

Mighty God,
how they were shocked
when you chose
David.

  He was least of all.

 Amaze us again. 
Pick us. Please say of us,
“they are the ones, the least of all.”

Then, do your work
in us.


THE SECOND READING

Ephesians 5:8-14

But now you are light in the Lord.

Christ,
cast your
 light upon us.

and
twinkle upon
every sorry place,
every wonderful face,
everyone who might need
your grace.

Amen.
