Scripture: Jeremiah 9:23–24; Micah 6:6–8

“As we partner with God in creating, we should embrace what gives God joy. Jeremiah’s compact teaching reminds us of what God delights in, and that we can share that delight. God finds joy in ‘steadfast love, justice, and righteousness,’ Jeremiah says, and we know that these values, along with a few similar words, appear all over the Bible.” –Howard R. Macy, Fruit of the Vine

Query: How is God shaping your heart?

so she moved the mountain,

with the faith of a trowel,

to find the seed—

carefully eradicated debris,

displayed source, dusting it off

periodically to remove freshly

accumulated assumptions

–Joann Renee Boswell, from “Mustard Seed” in Cosmic Pockets
