This Thanksgiving holiday, our tables are full. Many go hungry. Our houses are warm. The homeless, cold. Our families gather together while some are separated by war. No day is without its sorrow; no time without its trial.
As moral agents, all of us need to work for the creation of a just and peaceful society. When we find ways to restore the order of justice and, at the same time, extend compassion that heals and leads to reform, we are modeling the very heart of God.
