Reflect
The Covenant Box was the acacia wood box that accompanied the Israelites on their wilderness wanderings in the time of Moses. It contained the two flat stones that had the Ten Commandments written on them. This box was sacred to God’s people. In your community of faith, are there objects or places that you consider to be sacred? What are they?
Pray
Holy Lord, you inhabit both the heavens and the earth, filling them with your light and love. Make me aware of your presence that I may more easily see and know your steadfast love and care. Amen.
