It is not right to be partial to the guilty, or to subvert the innocent in
judgment.
As Christians who have been given a vision of what our world should be, we cannot
remain silent.
Not everything is in order. The innocent need our support, our prayers and our action.
Take a
stand against injustice.
(Proverbs 18:5
NRSV)
Albert Einstein is said to have begun speaking late in childhood. In a story which
admittedly
sounds apocryphal, young Einstein uttered his first sentence while sipping from a bowl
of soup.
He tasted it and then said to his parents, "The soup is too hot." Naturally they were
elated but still
they asked him, "Why did you wait so long to speak?" Einstein replied, "Because, up to
now,
everything was in order."
Dear God, help me to identify with the innocent. Amen.
