Old Testament Verse

The Lord makes poor and makes rich; he brings low, he also exalts.
1 Samuel 2:7

New Testament Verse

As believers in our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, you must never treat people in different ways according to their outward appearance.
James 2:1 GNT

Prayer

Lord of glory, thank you for your justice that turns the tables on life as usual. You bring grace when and where we least expect it. Help us to see and treat others, not in light of how the world perceives glory, but according to the cross of Christ. Call us anew into your kingdom this day. Amen.
