Scripture – Isaiah 50:6

6 I gave my back to those who struck me

    and my cheeks to those who pulled out the beard;

I did not hide my face

    from insult and spitting.

Prayer Focus: On a day of remembrance such as this one, we hear words from Isaiah that might appear to be difficult. How can we not want vengeance against those who harm us? How can we turn our backs, turn the other cheek, and receive demeaning insults? Remember what Christ has done for you to set you free – it was love and sacrifice, not vengeance, that provided a new future. Pray for our nation on this day of remembrance. Pray for all who are abused. Pray for a future with hope.
