Verse of the day

No weapon that is fashioned against you shall prosper, and you shall confute every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord and their vindication from me, says the Lord.
Isaiah 54:17

Voice of the day

i made it up / here on this bridge between / starshine and clay, / my one hand holding tight / my other hand; come celebrate / with me that everyday / something has tried to kill me / and has failed.

Lucille Clifton, “won’t you celebrate with me”

Prayer of the day

Creator, you formed us out of starshine and clay. Be with us now as we celebrate justice and subvert the powers that seek to harm.
