A shoot shall come out from the stock of Jesse, and a branch shall grow out of his roots.
Lord of love,
love is the root that feeds the brach
that burst with leaves of peace.
May love be rooted in my heart
and watered with your spirit.
Amen.
Reflection for the week
The images of a tree can signify majesty and long life, but also pride and vulnerability - because a mighty tree can be cut down. The 'shoot' that will come is not a restoration of King David's glory days, but the unexpected choosing of a leader who is a mere boy.
Live in faith
Do one thing to show someone you love them and one thing to create peace.
Encourage others to follow your lead.
