Rest as Resistance: How Stillness Can Defy Fear and Darkness

By Amy Knorr

On that first solo-driving day, as my daughter backed out of the garage and onto the road with a smile and a little wave, I swear I saw the gossamer shape of a 5-year-old, hands clenched on the handlebars of a tiny bike, pedaling shakily down the street with that familiar left-right wobble of a new rider.

Morning Prayer

Assembled by Alexander Carimichael

Thanks to Thee, O God, that I have risen today,
To the rising of this life itself;
May it be to Thine own glory, O God of every gift,
And to the glory of my soul likewise.
