The Story Is Ending

I start my vocational ministry calling with pastoral ministry in Wisconsin. I thought I knew something about ministry. But I did not.
However, God shows up in a wonderful way as I finish my time at seminary, despite a stress-filled and ambiguous final semester.

The Visited Planet

This is a reading of the wonderful little story of two angels, as written by J. B. Phillps. I thought it would be great for Christmas.
Philippians 2:5-13
'Adopt the same attitude as that of Christ Jesus,
who, existing in the form of God,
did not consider equality with God
as something to be exploited.
Instead he emptied himself
by assuming the form of a servant,
taking on the likeness of humanity.
And when he had come as a man, he humbled himself
by becoming obedient
to the point of death —
even to death on a cross.
For this reason God highly exalted him
and gave him the name
that is above every name,
so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow —
in heaven and on earth and under the earth —
and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.
Therefore, my dear friends, just as you have always obeyed, so now, not only in my presence but even more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God who is working in you both to will and to work according to his good purpose.

My Daily Prayer

I have been wanting to get this on my podcast for some time. Beginning last year as November started, I challenged myself to read every day from this prayer in the back of John Eldredge's book, Moving Mountains. As I read it day-to-day, I also started adding highlights and God inspired more customization as words and phrases arose in the moment. This version is the seventh update and I decided to have an easy-to-access audio version as well.
Full credit goes to Wild at Heart and their amazing ministry that has blessed me through the years. They have a whole page dedicated to prayers you can download and listen to here. It's where I got the text I copied and pasted to customize, which is definitely something I suggest you do.
And finally, if you would like to download a PDF version of the prayer I read from, click here.
