The phrase: “Go where the people are” reminds me of my call to peace, service, and justice. And, it reminds me to go—to not wait for others to come to me.
In work for justice, let love be the animating force, the guide for discernment, the foundation that energizes even the most challenging and heartbreaking moments.
