There is so much trouble in the world.
It
is natural to ask, “What can I do to alleviate troubles in the Ukraine, in the Central
African Republic, in Venezuela – or in our
country?”
It
is natural to be discouraged sometimes.
But there are a
couple things we can do. First, we can
refuse to permit discouragement to keep us from doing what we can where we
are. Second, we can practice peace. We can strive to increase our capacity to
contribute to peace; to think clearly, to speak truthfully, and to act with
integrity, courage and love whenever and wherever we are called.
