Commontide

For Guidance

O God, by whom the meek are guided in judgment, and light rises up in darkness for the godly: Grant us, in all our doubts and uncertainties, the grace to ask what you would have us do, that the Spirit of wisdom may save us from all false choices; that in your light we may see light, and in your straight path we may not stumble; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Pauline, c. AD 55

Draft — AI-assisted research under editorial review.

Paul's parting words to the troubled church at Corinth became one of Christianity's most durable blessings. The closing verse of his second letter asks that the grace of Christ, the love of the Father, and the communion of the Spirit rest on a community he could not always reach in person.
