Hear our cry O God, when righteousness upturned….
when the
river of justice is directed away from the weak……
when crocodile tears flood from
the thrones…
when our protests are confronted with ‘moral codes’ and
protocols…
when our traumas are equated with currencies ….
Let our cry realize your presence as in the lives of Dinah,
Tamar, Soumya and Jyothi…. Let their tears lubricate the immobilized structures of justice.
Let their weeping faces and torn fleshes
fire up our conscience
In Jesus’ name….Amen
