The prayer series

Jesus,

The “I have a dream” speech is great.
And the voice of Martin Luther King is both poetic and strong.

I have been thinking about a feminist speech and you lead me to the excellent one.
It widens my heart and mind.
It reminds me:
“Did I get you into my thinking and doing about human rights?”

Jesus,

What should we do about the gender discrimination problem in our country?

I hope for the next thirteen years,
by 2030,
we’ll have many fruits for the gender equality goal
(the goal in the Sustainable Development Goals*).

Thank you, Jesus.

Amen.

PTH
