Lent is a call to repentance– turning from our own way and following instead God’s way in the world. One of the biggest ways we seem to get sidetracked is in our belief that we understand what justice should be. We’d rather believe that those who suffer in the world deserve it for one reason or another– this allows us to turn a deaf ear to their suffering, rather than engage ourselves in solutions. Are we ready to follow another way? (Luke 13:1-9; Isaiah 55:1-9)
