If You Want Peace, Work For Justice

I have been wondering why God put me at World Vision - because it clearly has nothing to do with my passion for the Balkans or reconciliation/peacebuilding. I prayed about this last weekend. This week, I started noticing this bumper sticker that reads, "If you want peace, work for justice." Three times this week, I have followed cars emblazoned with it. At chapel on Wednesday, Rich said something about World Vision's work to end poverty being a way to work for justice in the world. As previously mentioned, I don't believe in coincidence. Clearly, God is at work here.
