Lord, let your vision of future righteousness and justice inspire us reach higher, and live according to your precepts. Ingrain them within us as we seek to follow your teaching. I pray for your wisdom and discernment in your name, Jesus, according to the good and perfect will of the Father. Amen.

“Thus says the Lord God: Enough, O princes of Israel! Put away violence and oppression, and execute justice and righteousness. Cease your evictions of my people, declares the Lord God. You shall have just balances, a just ephah, and a just bath.” (Ezekiel 45: 9-19 ESV)
