The Mothers' Persistent Waiting - Liberation (Isaiah 40:31)

The Mothers of the Disappeared have waited decades for justice in Argentina, Chile, El Salvador. They wait for bodies to be found, for perpetrators to be named, for truth to emerge. Waiting isn't passive—they march, they document, they demand. Yet they also wait on God: praying, lighting candles, keeping vigils. "Those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength." The poor and oppressed know waiting that the comfortable don't. Their waiting is active, resistant, hopeful. God renews their strength for another day of struggle.
