Kelly talks about an interesting situation she once found herself in as we discuss God at work even when we don't understand it. That we must be open to being His hands and feet.

Crystal and Kelly chat about the strange gift of "context," the humility of the gift of "support," and our call to "give thanks in all circumstances" as beautifully displayed in the Ravensbruck Prayer. This prayer was found beside the dead body of an unknown young girl who died in the Ravensbruck concentration camp.

“Oh Lord, remember not only the men and women of good will, but also those of ill will. But do not remember all the sufferings they have inflicted on us; Remember the fruits we have bought, thanks to this suffering — our comradeship, our loyalty, our humility, our courage, our generosity, the greatness of heart which has grown out of all this, and when they come to judgement let all the fruits which we have borne be their forgiveness.”

Today, Kelly and Crystal talk about what it means to reflect His light and love — even when it is hard.

Download this week's Pray, Grow, and Serve devotional to discuss reflecting His light and love with your children.
