Verse of the day
For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”
Galatians 5:14 (NIV)
Voice of the day
We wear masks out of our freedom to care for one another. We stay home because in our freedom we don’t want to get others sick. We don't reopen our church buildings just yet because our freedom calls us to take care of not just ourselves, but instead turn toward the greater good of all. We continue to slow down and make wise choices out of our love for freedom.
Prayer of the day
God, liberate our selfish understandings of freedom in order that we may truly live into the biblical call to freedom to love one another and serve each other in Christian love.
Adapted from Reopening Too Early Is Not Freedom, It’s Selfish by Jes Kast
