Faith

Ultimately, we have to know when we need to lay this grief down at the feet of Him who is greater than us.

The Savior shares our burdens, making us never truly alone. In times of loneliness, remember the love and prayers of those who care.

To truly follow the Savior, we must see others as he sees them, recognizing their inherent goodness and sacredness.

The call for us today is to find our place in the story and work to build Zion/ the Beloved Community in our communities.

True patriotism lies in loving and serving others, showing gratitude, and recognizing the sacredness of this land.

As we love our neighbors and see them as God does, we acknowledge their humanity and build the beloved community together.

We must actively repair and strengthen our relationships and communities to participate in the gathering of Israel and the building of Zion.

Gratitude, though powerful, cannot heal wounds alone. Prayer and gratitude, however, can be powerful tools for healing.

Humility is recognizing from where you get your strength. Humility is being confident because of the Lord.

Reflecting on Christ as my advocate and how my advocacy should reflect Christ is helping me determine which causes to support.

Loving our enemies stems from understanding our shared humanity and the need for belonging.

Covenantal relationships, not transactions, create a world of belonging and salvation.

What stories are at risk of remaining unwritten because we are afraid to act? What don’t we do because we think we need to do it perfectly?

We need enduring faith to keep working and building and hoping, holding on to a vision for a brighter future and relying on Christ.

In the midst of unrelenting storms, Christ is always willing to be our anchor and to help us feel moored.
