Question: Eight out of ten people who own one of these don’t use it. What is it?
Answer: A piano!
Do you have a piano at home? Do you play it regularly? There are some things, like pianos, that have little consequences if we don’t use them. But there are other things, that if we don’t use them well, could have big consequences. Like how we use our words. How we use our words matter. Our words can bless others, and our words can hurt others. It’s up to us how we use them.
On this Mother’s Day morning, Pastor Jill leads us in a Midrash as we listen to God together to experience His words for us and for us to give His love to others.
