Pastor Tony reminds us that as Christians, we are called to strive for justice on behalf of the poor and oppressed. We’ve gotten really good at ignoring the widow, both because we don’t want to be her, but also because to help her we would have to see her and seeing her would demand that we look closer at the crowd of people around us. And if we want to be like Jesus, then we have to see like Jesus. God is inviting us to see them, to care for them, and to advocate for a system that does not marginalize or leave anyone behind.
