thank you so much for posting this. It articulated so many of my own thoughts...One of my class mates said that we just need to wait for history to cycle around and things will get better. How can we sit and wait and not do whatever we can to alleviate the suffering of others and make the world the place God intended it to be?
I had similar conversations (minus the explicit references to God) in social work school for almost all of last year. And we can't just wait around for things to change. It's hard to feel that the small things make a difference, but as your Lunn quote attests, they do make a difference. And it's the small, individual moments that can help us keep moving forward while we work on the bigger issues.
Thank you for some thought-provoking, action-inspiring words this morning. I truly needed them.
