At Jubilee+ we’re really pleased to see the two-child benefit limit lifted, alongside other measures. These are great steps forward - but there’s still so much more to do. Let’s keep praying for our government and working hard on the ground in our communities.

“We won’t always agree on how to design a national refugee policy,” writes @drmoore.bsky.social.

“But we can’t say we haven’t been warned about what happens to us when we learn to harden our hearts to those in danger.”

Does loving someone mean always being available? What about when people’s needs start to drain my energy? How do I balance my time? How do I manage people’s expectations? Is it selfish to say no to things?

Yes. This is a really good point. Why do we have this odd double-standard? (I confess, I have it too.)

A great, brief, thought-provoking, helpful post.
