7 Show us your
mercy, O Sophia, *
and grant us your
salvation.
8 I will listen
to what Sophia, our God, is saying, *
for She is
speaking peace to Her faithful people
and to those who
turn their hearts to Her.
9 Truly, Her
salvation is very near to those who fear Her, *
that Her glory
may dwell in our land.
10 Mercy and truth
have met together; *
righteousness and
peace have kissed each other.
11 Truth shall
spring up from the earth, *
and righteousness
shall look down from heaven.
12 Sophia
will indeed grant prosperity, *
and our land will
yield its increase.
13 Righteousness
shall go before Her, *
and peace shall
be a pathway for Her feet.

(daily divine feminine scripture readings for the season) is
For as many as are
led by the Spirit of God, these are children of God.
For you didn’t receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received
the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry, “Amma! Mother!”

The Spirit Herself
testifies with our spirit that we are children of God;
and if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint heirs with Christ;
if indeed we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.
For I consider that the sufferings of this present time
are not worthy to be compared with the glory which will be revealed
toward us.

are not worthy to be compared with the glory which will be revealed
toward us.
For the creation
waits with eager expectation for the children of God
to be revealed. For the creation was subjected to vanity, not
of its own will, but because of Her who subjected it, in hope
that the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of decay
into the liberty of the glory of the children of God.
For we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together
until now. Not only so, but ourselves also, who have the first fruits
of the Spirit, even we groan within ourselves, waiting for adoption,
the redemption of our body.

the redemption of our body.
For we were saved in
hope, but hope that is seen is not hope.
For who hopes for that which they see?
But if we hope for that which we don’t see, we wait for it with patience.
In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don’t
know how to pray as we ought.
But the Spirit Herself makes intercession for us with groanings
which can’t be uttered. She who searches hearts knows what is in the
Spirit’s mind, because She makes intercession for the
saints according to God.
Romans 8:14-27
