Dearly Beloved,
Grace and Peace to you.
Evil has only one small power:
to destroy.
It's not really power,
just fear with practice.
Evil can frighten but not teach,
it can wound but not lead,
it can destroy but not create.
It can cause sorrow,
but it can't move the world forward.
It can only destroy.
So can, by the way, a germ.
It is no great power.
You need not save the world from evil.
Merely live gently with hope,
create beauty, spread love,
give of yourself even in the face of fear,
and evil with all its small terrors
will be outdone.
Even a massacre is not as great a thing
as a child's drawing.
Deep Blessings,
Pastor Steve
