WOV #784 “You Have Come Down to the Lakeshore”
Devotion
“You need my hands, my exhaustion, working love for the rest of the weary — a love that’s willing to go on loving.” Even things we think are liabilities, like our exhaustion, our weaknesses and our failings, can be used to share the good news. When people see that we are in need and yet still willing to serve and give, they often wonder why. Then we can point beyond ourselves to the God whose grace is made perfect in weakness.
Prayer
Loving God, thank you that you can use even our weaknesses to share your good news. Help us to trust in your power rather than our own as we go about your work in the world. Amen.
