The cries of injustice have reached God’s ears and heart. God says, “I see their oppression and suffering.”
“We see it, too, God,” we respond. “Are you going to rescue them now?”
And god responds, “So get going. I’m sending you to Pharaoh to bring my people, the Israelites, out of Egypt.” (Exodus 3:10 CEB)
Who are we to fix injustice or bring your love into the world?
I will help you, says God. I will be at your side but you must go. I have chosen you.
Here we are, Lord. We will go.
