Prayer of the Day: Accept my gifts, O God

Working God, we give the labor of our hands to you. We do not always know how to do our work in a way that is pleasing to you. Please reveal that to us, O God. Help us to know that if we are faithful, our offerings will be acceptable in your sight. Help us to bring the first fruits of our labor in thanksgiving to you, and forgive us when instead we bring you what is left. In the precious name of Jesus, Amen.

Sojourners Comment Community Covenant

I will express myself with civility, courtesy, and respect for every member of the Sojourners online community, especially toward those with whom I disagree, even if I feel disrespected by them. (Romans 12:17-21)

I will express my disagreements with other community members' ideas without insulting, mocking, or slandering them personally. (Matthew 5:22)

I will not exaggerate others' beliefs nor make unfounded prejudicial assumptions based on labels, categories, or stereotypes. I will always extend the benefit of the doubt. (Ephesians 4:29)

I will hold others accountable by clicking "report" on comments that violate these principles, based not on what ideas are expressed but on how they're expressed. (2 Thessalonians 3:13-15)

I understand that comments reported as abusive are reviewed by Sojourners staff and are subject to removal. Repeat offenders will be blocked from making further comments. (Proverbs 18:7)
