By: Nicole Ashwood, Programme Executive, Just Community of Women and Men World Council of Churches & Nirmala Gurung, Coordinating Asia region for World YWCA’s Initiative on Young Women Changing Narratives on SRHR and Mental Health
BIBLICAL INSPIRATION: Habakkuk 2:1-3 “I will stand at my watch post, and station myself on the rampart; I will keep watch to see what he will say to me, and what he will answer concerning my complaint. Then the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision; make it plain on tablets, so that a runner may read it. For there is still a vision for the appointed time; it speaks of the end, and does not lie. If it seems to tarry, wait for it; it will surely come, it will not delay.”
QUESTIONS FOR REFLECTION
• In Habakkuk 2: 2-3, God instructs Habakkuk to write his vision clearly.
What is your vision for a transformed community in your context?
• Are there special gifts or skills needed to bring the vision to life?
• How can you partner with pre-existing community organizations to make a difference in the lives of others?”
