Prayer: Thank you, God, for sending your Son to redeem and save us. May our light shine before others as we spread the Good News of your love. Amen
Reading: Isaiah 49: 1-7 (Click to read text) Stop and GROW: After reading the text, discuss/ponder the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America's Book of Faith questions, which are part of Camp Mount Luther's GROW Time with campers. QUESTION 1: What scares, confuses, challenges, or doesn’t make sense to me in this text? QUESTION 2: What delights me in this text or is my favorite part of the story? QUESTION 3: What stories or memories does this text stir in me? QUESTION 4: What is God up to in this text? Reflection: Isaiah is full of prophecy telling us of who is to come and preparing us for the coming of the One who will redeem and save us. Pay attention, give heed and listen! It is time to shine. It is so easy to get sidetracked and detoured. Isaiah promises that God’s salvation will reach to the ends of the earth. However, we need to persist to proclaim and help spread the Good News. We are to let our lights shine. Each one of us in our own humble way are God’s ambassadors. How does your light shine? -- Alice Yeakel
