Verse of the day

I am about to do a new thing; now it springs forth; do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.
Isaiah 43:19

Voice of the day

Indifference — sanctification’s angstier, sexier step-sibling — not only accepts the questions as unanswerable but posits that maybe they never mattered that much anyway. Maybe they don’t matter, and maybe there’s nothing to do about it. Indifference is a refusal to hope.

Curtis Yee, “thoughts about my grandfather”

Prayer of the day

It can be difficult to believe newness if we are surrounded by desolation. Lord, stir us out of the lull of indifference.
