Truly
Growing
If we truly are growing in love with our
neighbors who are suffering at the hands of unjust systems—if that love is deep
enough and authentic enough—then finding ourselves opposing those unjust
systems will follow as naturally as the morning follows the night…. I don’t
think we go out looking for oppressive systems to confront, like Don Quixote
went out looking for windmills to attack. Our doing must flow naturally out of
our being. Our doing for justice must flow naturally out of our being in love
with those for whom there is no justice.
