Freedom

Let freedom ring, not just at the doorbells of those of us with resources and privilege, examined or not, recognized or not; but at every gate, door, shelter, and under every bridge.

Let freedom rock, not just in music and slogans, but let it rock our whole world, comforting our afflictions and afflicting our comforts.

Let freedom roll, not steamroll the voiceless and powerless, but roll out the red carpet of respect and dignity to all God's children.

Let freedom roar, not as battle cry of competition for resources perceived to be in scarce supply, but as proclamation of the justice and abundance of grace that's offered to all creation.

Ring, rock, roll, roar sister Freedom, for we are sore in need of your generosity!
