inattentive

Tonight it was revealed to me that I have become very apathetic. Like the bumper sticker says, I haven't been outraged because I haven't been paying attention. The grad program I'm in has a huge emphasis on social justice, and it has gotten me riled up a little the past few weeks, but Jesus has been missing.

I went to a prayer/worship event in support of ServLife International and my passion was renewed. The Lord showed me again the things that began breaking my heart years ago. Back then I did not have a grasp on how Jesus and social justice fit together. It was not talked about at church or in college ministries. Now I can't see them apart. I am broken, encouraged, hopeful, and ready to go.
