Evening: Psalm 103; Haggai 1:1-2:9; Matthew 18:15-20
Yesterday, a horrific shooting took the lives of 11 people at worship in a Pittsburg synagogue. This act of hatred moves us to reach out with support and prayer for Jewish friends and neighbours. Simply to say, “Well, it’s a violent world,” is to surrender to violence. Jesus teaches that when two disciples agree about something, their requests will be fulfilled. We surely agree, don’t we, that this violence must stop? … May we find strength and courage to resist the path of violence on every level, so that the Way of Peace may prevail.
