Maybe it will be good to have Judge Amy Barrett on the U.S. Supreme Court. Maybe she will recognize the rights of the poor in spirit, and the rights of the poor.
Maybe she will protect the meek and gentle of heart so far as the law will allow.
Maybe she will write opinions designed to comfort those who mourn, even when she feels herself compelled by settled law to rule against them.
Maybe she will be one who hungers and thirsts for what is right.
Maybe she will be merciful. And unafraid to show it.
Maybe she will join the pure in heart, even if they do not include many of the people who put her on the Court.
And maybe she will protect the rights of peacemakers even in the face of confrontation.
