Justice by Carmel Whittle

He has shown you, O mortal, what is good.

    And what does the Lord require of you?

To act justly and to love mercy

    and to walk humbly with your God. Micah 6:8

There is a difference between 'not envious', and requiring justice.  I am not envious about by neighbour and their fun lifestyle, but what if they are a burglar?  

Countries can be burglars too.  

Helder Camara, Liberation Theologian and Bishop of Rio said "without justice and love, peace will always be an illusion."  The rich call for peace.  The poor call for justice.

PRAYER: May my motivation be to pursue love, peace and justice.
