Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger, nor of the fatherless; nor take a widow's raiment to pledge: But thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt, and the LORD thy God redeemed thee thence: therefore I command thee to do this thing. Deuteronomy 24.17,18
Justice
At the heart of the Jewish law in the Old Testament, a demand for justice. Justice for those most vulnerable. Justice rooted in the mercy of God.
Stop and Think
How are the most vulnerable, asylum seekers, needy children, lone parents, treated in our society? Do they find justice?
What might it mean for you to seek justice for someone else today?
Choose to Act
Choose today to treat those you meet with fairness.
Do something to help make the world a place where the vulnerable are more able to find justice.
