We prepare for the coming of Jesus by sacrificing for justice. Jesus came to bring God’s justice to us. That means those who are little, least, last, lost, and dead are given new life. We rightly prepare for the coming of Jesus when we sacrificially participate in justice work. Bringing justice for people directly reflects the ultimate and merciful justice we receive through Christ and is dear to the heart of God.

 

Next Step: Identify one person you can bring justice to and let that justice roll down through you.
