Reflection and Renewal: Oceans of Justice, Rivers of Mercy (based on Amos 5:21-24)

God speaking to his people:

"Religion that doesn’t seek justice and love mercy rings hollow to me. I am the God who stands with the poor, the marginalized, the refugee, the orphan, the foreigner in your land, the widow, the oppressed.

Do you know what I really want? I want justice - oceans of it. I want mercy - rivers of it. That’s what I want. That’s all I want."
