Grace Ubuntu Fellowship

We hear people say that they are praying for peace or racial justice, and then we see them go on to do none of the practical work needed to accomplish those things. Worse yet, some use their prayers as a shield while striking out against those who really are doing the hands on work.

We hear others say that prayers will do nothing, that they serve only to make the one who prays more comfortable in their inaction.

The truth at the convergence of these points is that your prayers must be for the wisdom, strength, and courage to be the hands of Christ in this world. To do Justice, now.

If your prayer only serves to make YOU feel good, know that it has not brought good news to the poor and hurting of this world. If you pray for your own comfort, pray for the comfort that heals and rejuvenates, that you might go out and continue the work.

We enjoyed a field trip to watch Owen win the singing competition at his middle school. What a thrill! Congratulations!
