Sojourners Verse and Voice – 15 November 2022

Verse of the day
“When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not reap to the very edges of your field or gather the gleanings of your harvest; you shall leave them for the poor and for the alien.”

– Leviticus 23:22

Voice of the day
God is not a God of waste. Even when there is abundance, God will ask you to collect it because it can still be eaten the following day or by another group of people.

– Vanessa Nakate, “It’s Time to Talk About Climate Emergency (No Not That One Photo)”

Prayer of the day
Thank you that you waste nothing God; we will continue laboring for justice even when our own needs are met.
