Sunday Reflection

 


Pinwheel blocks # 7 and 8.  Pinwheel star.  In case you're wondering, there will be 12 blocks total.

For Sunday reflection, words from interpretive translation of Talmudic texts:

Do not be daunted by the enormity of the world's grief.

Do justly, now.  Love mercy, now.  Walk humbly, now.

You are not obligated  to complete the work,

But Neither are you free to abandon it.


and from the Bible, Micah 6:8

What does the Lord require of you?  To act justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.


I am glad today that my peace and social justice church prayed for the president during our Zoom service.  The neighboring  Ohio governor has proclaimed today as a Day of Prayer for the president and First Lady, as well as those suffering from or impacted by coronavirus.  A very inclusive proclamation.  Another glimmer.  We really can all work through this together if we only will.
