Amidst the tensions between gung ho for duty to country doing and a clinging to fierce independence, I recently ducked into a thrift shop that also sells books. Volumes of digesting God's Word. I dove in. "Randomly" opened after a sincere prayer.
The passage was so apt I read it again. It was about evil. Specifically, when Jesus was in Temple. Teaching. The gist: Evil was also hearing.
Life often gets to that point. It's hard on our psyches to take a step back; let others lead (especially on strategy); reign in imagination and memories; curb our flapping lips. And to be sure, these times are not for disengaging.
Early Christians had to become even more vigilant, carekeeping, and holding so much "sacred".
