LESSONS AVOIDED

Everyone is upset about what is going on in society. Protestors want meaningful change. Law and Order folks want the Rule of Law and not lawlessness. Let’s not forget that there are consequences, some of which are unintended, with each choice. Here are some thoughts from my Lectio Divina (Philippians 2:5).

• Change of any kind won’t work if it is based on hatred.
• Justice without mercy is blind.
• You can’t have both love and hatred in your heart at the same time.
