I’m struck in particular by God’s accusation against the shepherds: “You have not strengthened the weak” (34:4). Conversely, God, as the good shepherd, promises to “strengthen the weak” (34:15). I wonder, am I using the power God has entrusted to me so as to empower others, especially those who have not been empowered by our culture and its institutions? Can I help give voice to voiceless, both through my commitment to listening as well as my ability to share my platform with them?
