Verse
Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and
hill be made low; the uneven ground shall become level,
and the rough places a plain. Then the glory of the Lord
shall be revealed, and all people shall see it together.
Isaiah 40:4-5
Voice
True peace is not merely the absence of tension; it is
the presence of justice.
Martin Luther King Jr.
Prayer
God, today we honor your prophet, Martin Luther King Jr.
May his legacy continue to inspire us not simply to the
absence of tension, but to the presence of justice. May
ground that is still uneven continue to be made level.
Amen.

THIS IS THE DAY
Verse
This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and
be glad in it. Psalm 118:24
Voice
"There's so much to be grateful for, words are poor things."
Marilynne Robinson
Prayer
Loving God, your goodness is all around us. But sometimes
it seems overshadowed by pain, death, and suffering.
Assure us in times of doubt that you are the God of
resurrection. May our lips sing you praise, and may our
lives be a living sacrifice to you. Amen.
Common Prayer
