Gospel Reading - Good stewards

⁴²“So be prepared, for you don’t know what day your Lord is coming.

⁴³“Just as a man can prevent trouble from thieves by keeping watch for them, ⁴⁴so you can avoid trouble by always being ready for my unannounced return.

⁴⁵“Are you a wise and faithful servant of the Lord? Have I given you the task of managing my household, to feed my children day by day? ⁴⁶Blessings on you if I return and find you faithfully doing your work. ⁴⁷I will put such faithful ones in charge of everything I own!

. . . . .Matthew 24:42-47

I will give you shepherds after my own heart
who will feed you with knowledge and understanding.

The Lord's Prayer

Our Father in heaven,
     hallowed be your name,
     your kingdom come,
     your will be done,
          on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
     as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial
     and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours
     now and for ever.
Amen.
