Today as I pray for the vicitms of the California fires, I realise that whoever started the blaze
made many victims. Homes and posessions lost, all gone in a flash.
As we go thru life, how many times do we make others our victims? We are having a bad day
so we lash out at the sales clerk who makes a simple mistake..........making her the victim
of our anger.
Some one gives us a little too much change,and we keep it , instead of correcting the mistake, we secretly rejoice , making
them the victim of our greed.
And the list goes on, and the transgressions get bigger... we waste food, while others starve,
and plunder land and culture for the ever growing greed for fuel.
No one can change all in a day, but each of us can do our part, in small ways.
Just for today, don't make anyone your victim. Do what you can to make the world
a better place.
You might like the satisfied feeling it gives you and want to do the same tomorrow, and the day after.
Think carefully before you act....
Who will be your victim today?
