wells
Living in a barren landscape, to dig for a well requires vision and hope — that at the end of the messy, labor intensive process there is water that brings life. God calls us to this. To dig wells. To labor for racial reconciliation. To do justice.
It’s not easy. It takes time. It’s often painful. But the result of digging deeper is life.
When God called His followers to enter into suffering, this was not merely suffering at the hand of persecutors — this was also suffering in the difficult labor of the Kingdom of God. Let us then suffer for the sake of the cross in pursuit of reconciliation.
