Matthew 28:19-20

Micah 6:8 gives us clear direction if we want to know what we can do in this current age in time. Do justly, love mercy, walk humbly with your God.

With so much going on in our world both collectively and individually, there is an appropriate response to our lived experience... Do Whatsoever He Says! (John 2:1-5 & Matthew 5:43-48)

As we see a rise in gun violence across the world, a disturbing number of the victims are young children. As we see and hear of violence of any kind against children, may prayer and compassion be our response to this senseless evil.

You and I are not special cases. We all fall short. Let's find encouragement in God and His Holy Word so that we can get up and get back to "work".

Remember your word to your servant, in which you have made me hope. This is my comfort in my affliction.

God is still working just as when things are going good he's working he's also working when things are looking bad.

Don't give up on hope. Creation is counting on you.

As we see from Mother Mary, we are called as servants of God to do whatever the Lord says.

In 2 Chronicles 15:4 we find that if we turn to the Lord and seek Him, then we will be found by Him. In an ever changing world, may we seek God and not the temporary things of this life that easily turn us away from Him.
