I’ve been preaching all week about God’s vision for an economically just society—
About Isaiah’s dream where returning exiles are offered free milk, bread, and wine.
About Jesus, who says: When you feed and clothe the poor, you’re doing it to me.
And when you don’t?
That’s to me, too.
How y’all gonna act like you’re Christian and pass this shitty bill?
Cutting Medicaid. Slashing food assistance. Gutting reproductive care and clean energy—all while ramping up ICE and military spending.
And to celebrate?
Guess what the orange liar is doing?
Flying the SAME bombers that attacked Iran—right over the White House.
Weaponry in the sky while our people can’t afford bread.
This is:
Profit over people.
Greed over love.
Violence over justice.
What kind of freedom flies on wings of death?

I am feeling dismayed today after that bill was passed yesterday. But, we may look like a motley crowd to those who are walking lockstep with injustice. They can call us misguided and pathetic. But we are guided by love and are following a higher calling. Autocracy does not survive for long because the human spirit is indomitable. God is leading us, and love will win.
