  Epixel* for February 10, 2013

 

We have
renounced the shameful things that
one hides; we refuse to practice cunning or
to
falsify God’s word; but by the open statement
of the truth we commend
ourselves to the
conscience of everyone in the sight of God.
                                                 -2 Cor. 4:2

Common Lectionary readings.
