Evening: Psalm 77; Matthew 5:21-26
In
university, I had two posters that summed up Jesus’ teaching on
reconciliation. Two ugly, toothless dragons with eye patches fought,
with the caption: “An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth … that way
the whole world will be blind and toothless” (a quote attributed to
Goethe, Gandhi, King, and Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof!). And
two angry dragons, each standing on his own tiny island, threw mud at
the other … the caption: “Mud slung, is ground lost” (words of Adlai
Stevenson, US ambassador to the UN, 1961-63). Make peace with your
opponent, soon.
