Buddies, hello and excellent Sunday to you. How have you ever been this week? Heavy, proper? I’ve spent the week doing my regular weekly duties – issues that felt completely foolish and extremely privileged contemplating the violence in Israel and Gaza. It’s been a tough week, actually.
I keep in mind beginning these Sunday posts after ISIS murdered journalist James Foley. I simply thought – it’s necessary that we acknowledge that we’re all human collectively and life is a lot greater than cookies and kolaches. To be trustworthy, most articles I’ve learn are so noisy with political divisions that don’t hit on the soul injury this form of violence creates. What I do know to be true is that no human of any faith or ethnicity ought to expertise the sort of violence we’ve seen this week. The antisemitism we’ve seen, delicate and in any other case, is unacceptable. Palestinians residing underneath a godless Hamas regime deserve security and freedom. I pray for the peace and security of Israelis and Palestinians. That is all so very ugly.
Right here’s the providing this week. Take what feels good to you. It’s okay to have a little bit relaxation, too.
