As I read the news about the Gaza Siege, the deaths and trauma
of the civil society grieves my heart. I
share the frustration when ceasefires are broken. I am concerned when my government’s policies do
not reflect our commitment to law and justice.
All of Abraham’s children are to work for righteousness and
justice. (Genesis 18:19) May the
following thoughts encourage us and strengthen us to work for justice for all God’s
children.

Verse of the Day
Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. I have sworn an oath and confirmed it, to observe your righteous ordinances. I am severely afflicted; give me life, O Lord, according to your word. Accept my offerings of praise, O Lord, and teach me your ordinances.

Voice of the Day
"I wish I could say that racism and prejudice were only distant memories. We must dissent from the indifference. We must dissent from the apathy. We must dissent from the fear, the hatred, and the mistrust ... We must dissent because America can do better, because America has no choice but to do better."

Prayer of the Day
Almighty God, you have blessed us with the joy and care of children. Give us calm strength and patient wisdom to reach out to those who are most in need, for those who are homeless and in poverty, for those who for whatever reason cannot enjoy the joyful life that children ought to experience.
