Today’s Inspiration

This is a song called “Oh My God” by Jars of Clay. It’s one of the most amazing songs I’ve ever heard. The last section of the song completely wrecks me:

Sometimes when I lose my grip, I wonder what to make of heaven

All the times I thought to reach up

All the times I had to give

Babies underneath their beds

Hospitals that cannot treat all the wounds that money causes,

All the comforts of cathedrals

All the cries of thirsty children – this is our inheritance

All the rage of watching mothers – this is our greatest offense

Oh my God

Oh my God

Oh my God

Today’s Challenge

If you normally eat out after church, skip it today and eat at home. Donate the money you save to your local food pantry.
