Verse of the day
The earth is the Lord’s and all that is in it,
the world, and those who live in it.
Psalm 24:1 (NRSV)
Voice of the day
We see these natural tragedies, which are the Earth’s response to our maltreatment. […] It is we who have ruined the work of God.
Prayer of the day
Creator God, protect all whose lives are being upended by wildfires and all who are risking their life to fight them. Break our selfish indifference to the cries of the Earth and the cries of the poor, who are most vulnerable to ecological disaster.
