Faith is a living, bold trust in God's grace, so certain of God's favor that it would risk death a thousand times trusting in it. Such confidence and knowledge of God's grace makes you happy, joyful and bold in your relationship to God and all creatures. The Holy Spirit makes this happen through faith. Because of it, you freely, willingly and joyfully do good to everyone, serve everyone, suffer all kinds of things, love and praise the God who has shown you such grace. - Martin Luther

Universal Declaration of Human Rights

Today is the 60th anniversary of the UN's unanimous passing of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. There's a great article about the Declaration in the latest mailing we got from the Heifer Project, though that magazine has unfortunately been buried somewhere in a pile at our house! I'll post it when I find it.
In the meantime, enjoy this music video. And consider reading up on international human rights and doing something about them.
