God bless us with discomfort at easy...

God bless us with discomfort at easy answers, half-truths and superficial relationships, so that we may live deep within our hearts. God bless us with righteous anger at injustice, oppression, and exploitation of people and the planet, so that we might work for justice, freedom, and peace. God bless us with tears to shed for those who suffer pain, rejection, hunger, and war, so that we might turn their pain into joy. And God bless us with enough foolishness to believe that we can make a difference in the world, so that we might do what others claim cannot be done. To bring justice, kindness and the gospel to all people, especially the poor.
