Good News on Social Justice

As I get ready to sign off for the night, just want to summarize the many, many stories from all over the world today: good times for the world spring.



Yes, there are terrible and ghastly situations every way you turn, but the spirit of goodness and decency and love and justice and mercy rises above all and from all, and will coalesce into one big love, and we just may still be around to see it.

From every corner of every part of the globe, good people are doing great things. Open your eyes to the look and the sound of it. Watch for a smile, and you will find it. And if you see someone without, give them one of yours.

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think on such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me - put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

That last part was Philippians 4:8-9. So I can't take credit for that part, but you get the idea, right?
