Give us a heart of love for those with whom we disagree, O Lord. May we interact with these people with civility, gentleness, and respect.

With great power the apostles gave their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace was upon them all. There was not a needy person among them, for as many as owned lands or houses sold them and brought the proceeds of what was sold. They laid it at the apostles’ feet, and it was distributed to each as any had need. - Acts 4:33-35 + Sign up to receive our social justice verse of the day via e-mail
