Jeremiah 20:10-13. In my distress I called upon the Lord, and he heard my voice – Ps 17(18):2-7. John 10:31-42.
Dignity of all peoples
Our world is rocked and riven by conflict. Some hatreds have been centuries in the making, others are newer but could have unseen long-term consequences.
Conditioned by media, leaders and others in the community to anoint ‘winners’ and ‘losers’ or the ‘good guys’ versus the ‘bad guys’, one of the hardest things is to see all peoples as having human dignity.
Today I use the words of the psalm to call on the Lord to help me recognise that all people were made in the image of God. I ask for the strength to hold fast to this principle, to not be led into a pit of despair and hatred.
