This Sunday at Peace

Scripture: Luke 187:1-8

a note from Holly

It is just me or does every Uber driver have a story? Certainly in the Dallas-Ft. Worth Area where every ride I get to (or from) the airport seems to be a refugee. Myanmar. Nigeria. Eritrea.

I find myself wanting to record their journeys and the wisdom they share which has come at such a cost.

This Sunday, we hear the story of a persistent widow who demands justice. It’s one of my favorites. Her story has become a parable about prayer—but that only works if you understand prayer as more than your head bowed.

If you understand prayer as Luke did—a life turned toward inward and outward.

She’s a great model for us. Like most of the faithful—her name is lost to us, but not her witness.

Thankful for the strength we build on,

Holly
