Pray. Act.

Here's this week's slightly different "Opening the Bible" blog post for i.ucc.org.

After reading and contemplating Luke 18:1-8, I’m feeling poetic. Imagine a jazz combo consisting of a 4-piece drum set, a smooth piano, a snapping finger and a stand up bass providing poetry background music.

Pray
Pray relentlessly
Pray relentlessly and boldly – ask God for justice
Pray
Even though the world may not care about justice
Pray
Take on the world
Pray relentlessly and boldly – ask God for justice
Take on the world
And be encouraged that God is listening - and responding.
