DAY 6 OF 47

ENOUGH: FOOLISHNESS 


“Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.” (Isaiah 1:17)


Take a few moments to meditate on this prayer:


May God bless us with discomfort at easy answers, half-truths, and superficial relationships, so that we may live deep within our hearts.

Amen.
