In Ps. 111:4 today: 'The Lord is gracious and merciful.' Grace and mercy come before exodus, whether the exodus is great or small. Grace and mercy come before reconciliation. What grace waits for you? Join God in what God is doing. Being gracious is my work today.

In Ps. 112:4 today: 'They shine in the dark for others who do right.' What a great image: the faithful are a light for others seeking good in the darkness. Where are you called to shine? Who is helping you to shine? Look for the light around you. To shine is my work today.

In Ps. 113:1 today: 'Praise, O servants of the Lord.' Interesting that we are called to praise at the beginning of the psalm, before a prayer is answered or blessing seen. We can praise God's faithfulness before our help comes. Be early to praise. Praise is my work today.

In Ps.114:2 today: 'Judah became God's sanctuary.' God is forever making qodesh/sanctuary for people. Nature is healing. The interiority of our lives holds freedom. Sanctuary allows for newness to meet the next challenge. Where do you find sanctuary? Sanctuary is my work today.

In Ps.115:12 today: 'The Lord has been mindful of us; he will bless us.' Zakar means to remember or be mindful of. Lord, help me remember the power of love. Make me mindful to be peaceable with my words. Just in my actions. In a moment of cruelty, being mindful is my work today.

In Ps. 116:1 today: 'I love the Lord because he hears my requests for mercy.' A divided country needs mercy. Neighborliness requires mercy. John Wesley said, 'it is as easy for a human to make a mistake as it is to breathe.' Blessed are the meek. Mercy is my work today.

Acosta: This is a Category 5 fuck-up of epic proportions. It is likely to go down as the worst presidency that we have ever witnessed in this country’s history. That tops the first administration that ended with an insurrection.

In Ps.117:1 today: 'Worship him, all you peoples!' We must develop appropriate awe, a sense of proportion, and an inner life equal to these days. Worship reminds us we are not alone. Sometimes we go to worship. Sometimes the holy comes to move us. Worship is my prayer today.

In Ps.118:9 today: 'It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to put confidence in princes.' We take refuge in truth so that we can bring confidence to life. Refugia is a haven for recovery & launching what is next. Consider what is your right work. Refuge is my prayer today.

Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal and his government has committed genocide in Gaza. The United States should stop all military assistance to Israel. Saying this is not antisemitic. (I’m Jewish, by the way.)

In Ps. 119:105 today: 'Your word is a lamp before my feet and a light for my journey.' Light transforms. Light is non-violent. Light works with a shadows. Light is self-giving. God knows how to be God with us. Light is my prayer today.

NEW: Attorneys for CNN/MSNOW ask for emergency court hearing, arguing their journalists are still being denied access to White House 1/

A screenshot of the first page of a federal court filing titled, in bold and underlined text, “REQUEST FOR IMMEDIATE HEARING.” The document is in a case against “Donald J. Trump, et al.”

The filing says that earlier that morning, the court issued a Temporary Restraining Order directing defendants, except President Trump, to “immediately return, reinstate, and restore” White House hard-pass press credentials held by employees of CNN, MS NOW, and POLITICO that were revoked on or around September 18, 2026.

The plaintiffs state that despite the order, journalists from CNN, MS NOW, and POLITICO attempted to enter the White House that morning and were turned away. The filing alleges that Secret Service agents also confiscated hard passes from journalists whose passes had not previously been taken. It specifically says plaintiff Betsy Klein, whose hard pass had been confiscated on September 19, requested its return but was denied and refused access to the White House complex.

The filing emphasizes urgency because CNN is scheduled to serve as the television pool for President Xi Jinping’s visit to the White House that evening. It concludes by stating that plaintiffs’ counsel contacted defense counsel that morning and asked to call the court together, but defense counsel had not responded. Page number “1” appears centered at the bottom.

In Ps.120:7 today: 'I am for peace; but when I speak, they are for war.' King taught us to attack forces of evil, not persons doing evil, and to avoid internal violence of the spirit as well as external physical violence. Turn back this age of cruelty. Peace is my work today.

Dan Schwerin @danschwerin.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

In Ps.121:2 today: 'my help comes from the Lord who made heaven & earth.' Watching the sunrise, this day we are given is already beautiful. The God who made this day is our help. Princes cannot make the sunset, or change impermanence. Serving the maker is my work today.

Dan Schwerin @danschwerin.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

In Ps.122:8: '...I will say peace be within you.' Violence is costing the world dearly. We desperately need another level of thinking. King said, 'Non-violence is a way of life for courageous people.' Consider how to make the peace bigger than the chaos. Peace is my work today.

Dan Schwerin @danschwerin.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

In Ps. 123:3 today: '...have mercy upon us for we have had more than enough of contempt.' Contempt will not be healed by more contempt. God's way is mercy by grace. There is hope in the struggle until mercy is received. There is hope in the struggle. Mercy is my work today.

Dan Schwerin @danschwerin.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

In Ps.124:7 today: 'We have escaped like a bird from the snare of the fowlers.' The word malat/escape suggests freedom with the help of an outside source, with a smoothness that is beautiful. For freedom Christ has set us free. To escape is my collective prayer today.

Dan Schwerin @danschwerin.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

In Ps.125:1 today: 'Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved...' Remember Paul says that we can boast in our sufferings because they end in God's outpouring love. Do not let despair win. Do not be moved. God is with us. Trust is my work today.

In Ps.126:5 today: 'Let those who plant with tears reap the harvest with joyful shouts.' If we persevere in planting God's dream, one day there will be joy. Can we be better ancestors? Take a Sabbath. Let the soul's soil rest. Then keep planting. Planting is my prayer today.

In Ps.127:1 today: 'Unless it is the Lord who builds the house, the builders' work is pointless.' Scripture points to God being a builder, a creator, a potter. Many have chosen to tear our single fabric of destiny. I will join God in what God is doing. To build is my work today.

Dan Schwerin @danschwerin.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

In Ps.128:6 today: 'Peace be upon Israel!' Shalom/peace represents more than the absence of conflict. Biblical Shalom features wholeness, harmony, relational balance, safety, and prosperity. Christian Nationalism is not biblical or godly. The peace of Shalom is my work today.

Dan Schwerin @danschwerin.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

In Ps.129:4 today: 'God cut me free from the ropes of the wicked!' Rasha/wicked is the willful rejection of righteousness, to be unbound by divine justice. We live in wicked times. May we be freed for flourishing. The universe ends in justice. To be free is my prayer today.

Dan Schwerin @danschwerin.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

In Ps.130:5 today: 'I hope, Lord, my whole being hopes, and I wait for God's promise.' Hope is not in circumstances but in the knowledge of God's fulfilled promises coming from the future toward us in the now. Hope helps us bear the cross of the present. Hope is my work today.

In Ps. 131:3 today: 'O Israel, hope in the Lord from this time on and forevermore.' This psalm features the power of 'being with,' the way an infant is calmed by being with its mother. Be with God today. Worship. Meditate. Be with. Reset hope. Hope is my work today.

Dan Schwerin @danschwerin.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

In Ps.132:8 today: 'Get up, Lord, go to your residence.' The biblical story affirms that God resides in countless places, always searching multiple ways to be with us for good. God resides in this reading. Our hurts and our hopes. Working justice. Residence is my prayer today.

Dan Schwerin @danschwerin.bsky.social · 10/09/2026

In Ps. 133:1 today: 'How very good and pleasant it is when kindred live together in unity!' Dew comes to all the grass. Creation is available to every life. We are in an all-blessing, all-flourishing universe. Unity heals. Not sameness. Unity is my work today.

Dan Schwerin @danschwerin.bsky.social · 10/09/2026

In Ps.134:1 today: 'Come, bless the Lord, all you servants of the Lord.' Be encouraged. There are countless in the world who bless what God blesses, quietly & full of grace. Bless neighborliness & flourishing for all. Reject Christian nationalism. To bless is my work today.

Dan Schwerin @danschwerin.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

In Ps.135:9 today: 'He sent signs and wonders into your midst, O Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his servants.' God is in solidarity with the oppressed. Watch for signs of unbridled good. Watch for wonders. Pharaoh cannot control wonder. My eyes are tuned to wonder today.

In Ps.137:4: 'How could we sing the Lord's song in a foreign land?' Today's moral incongruence has me feeling like a stranger in my own home. Yet we sing homing songs. We sing love for the other geese. We sing hope for the children. We sing to know God. To sing is my work today.

In Ps.138:7: 'Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve me against the wrath of my enemies.' God is the life-giver & life-preserver. When the walk drains, God revives us to resist evil, injustice, and oppression. Make room to worship. This walk is my work today.

Dan Schwerin @danschwerin.bsky.social · 05/09/2026

In Ps.139:18 today: 'I come to the end--I am still with you.' 'With' is a transformative word. God's pledge to be with us unlocks our capacity to be with each other. We can resist oppression from this powerful stance: 'with.' Best of all, God is with us. With is my work today.
