The Occupy movement makes me sad.  I don't know what to think, I just have a heavy heart.  I see people with valid concerns, fearing for their future.  They want justice and see that the only way to live in a just world is to fix a broken system.  I struggle with how to validate their needs without reinforcing a system that is and always will be broken.  How do we bring Christ into the conversation? The protesters are crying out for someone to hear them.  They are waiting for the 1% to not just take notice, but to change and try to make this system work.  While some good things may come from this, ultimately I think that Christians need to be praying and acting to provide for these people.  Where America has failed them, the church can and should provide.  That is how I hope to act.  As far as specifics, I am praying and letting God just break my heart toward the people at my local Occupy movement.  I feel that as a whole the church has been so segregated that to go and try to proclaim our agenda without seriously listening and observing, would be an extreme shame.  The harvest is ripe, but we have no idea what the crop is, and our tools are ridiculously outdated.  The action I feel that I need to take now is fasting and prayer.  Letting this heaviness, this sadness sit within me for awhile.  I need to feel the pain of a nation that is desperate for God, but doesn't know it.
