The God's Politics blog seeks to run a variety of opinions on important issues of faith, politics, and culture. Unlike pieces by Jim Wallis and Sojourners staff, other opinions expressed on this blog do not necessarily represent the position of Sojourners.
Justice is not peripheral to God's story. Justice — in its various forms — is mentioned over 200 times in the Scriptures. It's not optional, it's central. Seek justice.

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is despair, let me sow hope. Where there is darkness, light. Where there is sadness, joy. Amen.
A Prayer of St. Francis.
Loving God, we pray for the leaders of denominations and churches. May we support them in love and truth as they advocate for the least of these among us. Amen.
God of life, there are days when the burdens we carry chafe our shoulders and wear us down; when the road seems dreary and endless, the skies gray and threatening; when our lives have no music in them and our hearts are lonely, and our souls have lost their courage. Flood the path with light, we beseech you; turn our eyes to where the skies are full of promise. Amen
Adapted from a prayer by St. Augustine
