- With the iconic verse from Micah 4:3, we are given a vision of hope for a time when we will turn our weapons of violence into tools of harvest, moving from destruction to life, war to peace. How might this message be viewed today? At COP?
- “Each will sit under his own grapevine or under his own fig tree without any fear.” Verse 4.
- The New International Version of the Bible titles the second half of this chapter as Restoration Will Follow Crisis
- “‘In that day,’ says the LORD, ‘I will gather the lame, and assemble the outcasts whom I injured. I will transform the lame into the nucleus of a new nation, and those far off into a mighty nation.’” Verses 6-7. I’m struck here by the fact that God is admitting to injuring those of God’s flock. In that same verse, God also moves from that admittance to restoring those injured to justice. How might we model God’s example through Just Transition?
