Old Testament Reading - An unworthy steward replaced
15-16Furthermore, the same Lord God of the armies of heaven has told me this: Go and say to Shebna, the palace administrator: “And who do you think you are, building this beautiful sepulchre in the rock for yourself? 17For the Lord who allowed you to be clothed so gorgeously will hurl you away, sending you into captivity, O strong man! 18He will wad you up in his hands like a ball and toss you away into a distant, barren land; there you will die, O glorious one — you who disgrace your nation!
19 “Yes, I will drive you out of office,” says the Lord, “and pull you down from your high position. 20And then I will call my servant Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, to replace you. 21He shall have your uniform and title and authority, and he will be a father to the people of Jerusalem and all Judah. 22I will give him responsibility over all my people; whatever he says will be done; none will be able to stop him.
. . . . . . . .Isaiah 22:15-22You did not choose me but I chose you;*
and I appointed you to go out and bear fruit,
the fruit that shall last.
Confession
Almighty and merciful God,
we have sinned against you,
in thought, word and deed.
We have not loved you with all our heart.
We have not loved others
as our Saviour Christ loves us.
We are truly sorry.
In your mercy forgive what we have been,
help us to amend what we are,
and direct what we shall be;
that we may delight in your will
and walk in your ways,
through Jesus Christ our Saviour.
Amen.
