[Faith-talk] important to remember

[Bill Outman]

Yes, thank you for that message, Sarah.  

I fear we have strayed from this advice at times, perhaps even inadvertently
creating some of the problems we intend to avoid.  

Yet it is a struggle, as we also wish to take principled stands at times.
It's all a delicate balancing act.  We should remember Paul's words about
seeing though the glass darkly in this world, something those of us with
visual impairments should be acutely mindful of, as we face that issue on a
daily basis literally.

How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young,
compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of
the weak and strong. Because someday in your life you will have been all of
these.
