Prayer of the Day: Victims of Hurricane Sandy
Lord, we pray for all of those affected by Superstorm Sandy. Please give comfort to the families of those injured or killed. Guard those first responders who continue to enter dangerous situations to offer aid to others. And give strength to all affected as they work to rebuild. Amen.
Verse of the Day: Romans 8:38-39
For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. - Romans 8:38-39 + Sign up to receive our social justice verse of the day via e-mail

In New Interview, Macca Says Yoko Did NOT Break Up the Beatles
Sir Paul McCartney (L) and Yoko Ono (R).
According to Rolling Stone:
Paul McCartney says that Yoko Ono isn't at fault for splitting the Beatles or tearing John Lennon away from the group in an upcoming TV interview with David Frost, the BBC reports. "She certainly didn't break the group up," McCartney says, countering the commonly held belief that Ono caused the Beatles' dissolution. "I don't think you can blame her for anything," McCartney says, adding that Lennon was "definitely going to leave."

Editor's Note: Sojourners offices, which are based in Washington, D.C., will be closed due to the weather. We pray for the safety of our staff, neighbors, and all those affected by this storm.
God, we pray for all those along the East Coast in the path of Hurricane Sandy. Grant safety to all, including the first responders. We pray for all those who will lose electricity and whose homes may be been damaged. But we pray especially for those who have no homes and no shelters in times such as these. We ask that your hand would protect them and keep them safe. May our paths cross with theirs so that we might have an opportunity to love and serve them. Amen.
