A Soul Can Create Only

In The Midst Of Our Applauding The Feats Of Civilization, The Bible Flings Itself Like A Knife Slashing Our Complacency; Remind Us That God, Too, Has A Voice In History.

Dear Lord, Grant Me The Grace Of Wonder. Surprise Me, Amaze Me, Awe Me In Every Crevice Of Your Universe. Each Day Enrapture Me With Your Marvelous Things Without Number. ...i Do Not Ask To See The Reason For It All: I Ask Only To Share The Wonder Of It All.

...morally Speaking, There Is No Limit To The Concern One Must Feel For The Suffering Of Human Beings, That Indifference To Evil Is Worse Than Evil Itself, That In A Free Society, Some Are Guilty, But All Are Responsible.

Indeed, The Sort Of Crimes And Even The Amount Of Delinquency That Fill The Prophets Of Israel With Dismay Do Not Go Beyond That Which We Regard As Normal, As Typical Ingredients Of Social Dynamics. To Us A Single Act Of Injustice--cheating In Business, Exploitation Of The Poor--is Slight; To The Prophets, A Disaster. To Us Injustice Is Injurious To The Welfare Of The People; To The Prophets It Is A Deathblow To Existence: To Us, An Episode; To Them, A Catastrophe, A Threat To The World.

I Would Say About Individuals, A Individual Dies When They Cease To To Be Surprised. I Am Surprised Every Morning When I See The Sunshine Again. When I See An Act Of Evil I Don't Accomodate, I Don't Accomodate Myself To The Violence That Goes On Everywhere. I Am Still So Surprised! That Is Why I Am Against It. We Must Learn To Be Surprised.
