Learn to do good. Seek justice. Rebuke the oppressor. Defend the fatherless. Plead for the widow.
Isaiah 1:17 (NKJV)
Today’s guiding verse exhorts us to learn to do good. God asks us to embark on a lifelong learning process that demands our hearts and brains be open to the needs of other people. In a world full of injustices and difficulties, God wants us to be living examples of justice and love.
Seek Justice
The call to learn to do good reminds us that morality is not necessarily inborn. We are to be open, humble, and ready to change our attitudes. Our lives can be so busy that we lose sight of people around us who require our love and kindness.
Furthermore, we are standing up for the silent, disadvantaged, and disenfranchised when we pursue justice. We must confront our own prejudices and support those who are harmed by injustice. Even if there could be difficulties along the way, this road brings us closer to God.
Learn to Do Good
We are additionally reminded by our key text to assume responsibility for the weaker members of our community. Such people require advocates because they frequently lack a voice. Consider lending your time and empathy, supporting community groups, or speaking out in favor of social justice laws.
Think about one particular thing you can do to help others. It may be as simple as helping someone in need, giving of your time, or empowering people to deal with the challenges they face. Today, take a first step toward living up to the virtue that God commands us to seek. Learn to do good.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, teach me to do good, to fight for justice, to resist oppression, and to look out for the weak.
