Last time I wondered if those of us who live in comfort have sidelined urgency as an excuse to maintain our cushy existence.
I think the answer is clearly YES.
At the same time, I’m pretty sure Jesus doesn’t want us seeking justice in some sort of frenzied manner.
Jesus spent 3 years surrounded by crushing occupation, horrible poverty, slavery, disease. He certainly didn’t ignore those issues, but He didn’t walk around with His hair on fire about them, either.
Jesus showed us how to be at peace when we’re surrounded by chaos and turmoil.
Develop and spend time with a community of close friends.
Spend lots of time talking to God.
Value the people and circumstances you encounter.
Never compromise principles, regardless of circumstances or consequences. Follow Me.
