There are some horrible headlines in the news today – horrible. Fueled by centuries of hatred.
I watch and despair – where will this end? Big egos in charge who can’t back down and admit fault.
I can’t point the finger at international leaders who can’t humble themselves if I can’t. In my own home, at work, in church – can I swallow my pride, give up my need to be right, for something bigger – peace?
This is so hard is because it goes against our very nature. The only reason humility is a virtue in the West is because of Christ. Jesus humbled Himself on the cross! Think about it – God gave up His right to be right, and gave His life to make things right. If God can do that for me, I can do that for others.
It’s the only news big enough to change the nightly news.
