Help, I can't see!

Justice is invisible. Mercy is invisible. Neither can we see selflessness, kindness, or honesty. I think it's interesting that when the prophet Isaiah talks about the Messiah, he says: "He will not judge by what his eyes see or decide by what his ears hear."



The only way I can make that jive, is to think that this Messiah must operate on a framework of invisible qualities, not on the visible soap-opera drama that surrounds humanity.



What if every candidate in our election focused on advancing an agenda of selflessness, justice, and honesty? For that matter, what if every voter tried implementing selflessness in their day-to-day activities?



Most people will, as long as they can see a postive result in the offing. I think what we need to right our culture is a population willing to engage in the invisible with their eyes closed.
