Scripture: Matthew 5:7-9
Our world can often seem scary, cruel, and chaotic--even without a pandemic to heighten those things! The Scripture for today reminds us that we have the sacred gift which allows us to be bearers of God in the world. God gives each of us the ability to be kind, merciful, peacemakers, and light-bearers. As you go through today’s activities, remember that we do not reflect the world’s chaos but rather God’s peace, light and hope because God lives in us; God's light shines through us!
