"As shoes for your feet put on whatever will make you ready to proclaim the gospel of peace." (Ephesians 6:15)
"Lord, to whom can we go? You have the words of eternal life. We have come to believe and know that you are the Holy One of God." (John 6:69)
Where do you go when you see evil, suffering, and violence in this world? Does it make you tell Jesus that the teaching of peace and faith is too difficult to hold on to? Or do you turn back to Jesus because He is the only place you can turn, and because Jesus is still the Holy One of God even despite all that we see and hear? Take a moment to really experience the fullness of God amid the pain. We are built together as a community of faith, for only together can we keep our faith in these times and make a difference to God's legacy in this world. Thanks be to God!
