Prayer by Rev. Joe Wright at the Kansas State Senate

How come that we are merely aware of the misery—poverty, discrimination, injustice around us? Is it because we have not learned to see, or that we prefer not to see? It is said of God in the Old Testament that he saw the misery of his people, and, seeing it, he liberated them. Jesus saw the misery of the people around him and he did all he could to free them. Let us ask the Lord here with us that we may learn to see our own afflictions and those of the people around us. Then we can, with God's help, do something to remedy them.
Blessed be our Lord Jesus Christ:
to him be honor and everlasting power.
May his grace and peace
be always with you.
R/ And also with you.
