Sojourners Verse and Voice – 21 September 2021

Verse of the day
For this reason I remind you to rekindle the gift of God that is within you through the laying on of my hands; for God did not give us a spirit of cowardice, but rather a spirit of power and of love and of self-discipline.

– 2 Timothy 1:6-7

Voice of the day
Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble.

– John Lewis

Prayer of the day Grant us grace fearlessly to contend against evil and to make no peace with oppression.
– Book of Common Prayer
