Verse of the day

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness.” So I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.
2 Corinthians 12:9

Voice of the day

In neglecting to first embrace our own weakness before addressing the weakness of  others, we lose the value of reciprocity that Jesus modeled so profoundly.

Shannon K. Evans, "Embracing Weakness: The Unlikely Secret to Changing the World" (2019)

Prayer of the day

Great God, open our eyes to see the strength in our weaknesses, for your grace is sufficient. May we follow Jesus' example, embracing our struggles to better support others on their journeys.
