Christian Reflection and Prayer

Verse

Woe to him who builds his house by unrighteousness,
and his upper rooms by injustice; who makes his
neighbors work for nothing, and does not give them
their wages.
Jeremiah 22:13

Voice

A revolution which aims merely at changing official
policies and institutions with a view to an improvement
in material conditions has little chance of genuine
success. Without a revolution of the spirit, the forces
which produced the iniquities of the old order would
continue to be operative, posing a constant threat to
the process of reform and regeneration.
Aung San Suu Kyi

Prayer

Lord, remind us that we are resident aliens, called to
be in the world but not of it. Show us today what it
means to live as though your kingdom has come,
while trusting that it is still coming. Amen.
