The author of Hebrews says it clearly, "By embracing death Jesus sets free those who live their entire lives in bondage to the tormenting dread of death."

We want God to hear us. He wants us to hear Him as well. Great conversations come from respecting and listening to each other. Loving God and being loved by Him is our experience, developed in trust and honesty. The Psalmist opens his heart, and is open to hearing God's heart for him as well. May we also spend time with God this way today.

God's concern for how we treat each other is clear: look after orphans and widows, defend the rights of the poor and needy. He invites us to join Him in caring for and about others in ways that can change lives and bring justice. Father, would you open our eyes to the injustice in our towns, in our neighborhoods? Would you give us the courage to speak up and speak out that people would be free indeed?

Scripture tells us: Don’t repay evil for evil. Share in others’ sorrows. Do what is just and right. Might living with and in humility help us form the attitude of not seeking our own good, but another’s? To be like Jesus, is to take these words seriously, choose to love, choose to forgive, choose to do the right thing – every time.
