Jesus calls us to a life full of injustice.

Hope is a precious commodity in life. If someone has hope they get through just about anything. In order to have that hope, one of the things we need is the ability to believe in justice. We need the assurance that good will conquer over evil and that wrongs will eventually be righted. That belief in justice can be challenged when we see all the injustice in our world that seems to go on unchecked. Thankfully, today we hear Jesus, our Good Shepherd, assure us that he is always with with us. Just as he is alive in spite of the injustice he endured, so also our hope can remain alive even in the midst of the injustice we endure.
