Habakkuk 1:1-4, 2:1-4 | Luke 19:1-10

Jeremy Richards

Does anyone else feel like Habakkuk?

In the midst of an election year that seems to be even more divisive and hostile than regular,

with the constant news of yet another unarmed black man shot and killed in the street,

with reports of mass death in the middle East – 100 children recently killed in Aleppo,

[with the ever-present threat of terrorism around every corner,

with sexism that continues to be a daily reality for those of us who are women]

…and the list of injustices goes on and on…

It’s not hard to relate to Habakkuk’s words,
