I once…no, twice wrote, about courage. I mentioned that courage in some aspects may not, and usually does not translate to courage in all aspects.
I know how that feels. I have never in public spoken against any injustice that has translated to violence from the unjust. I suppose that’s what they are doing: Psychological warfare. If they can use a few as an example of how cruel and brutal they are, then people will shut up out of fear of being next.
Unfortunately, there will always be a next, as long as people are too trapped in fear to speak against injustices, violence, assaults, and all that is attached to it.
I say:
By the authority God has given me in Christ;
I am against any kind of assault on women and children.
I am against lack of equity for all.
I am against racism — wherever it may come from.
I am against rape. Be it sexual, economical, or cultural.
I stand with truth, justice, equity, fairness, respect, morality, and security for all.
“God is my refuge and strength… therefore will I not fear…” Psalm 46
Let righteousness reign in every part of the world, in Jesus Christ name. Amen!
