My Pondering
This snapshot in history reminds me of this scene in Mel Gibson’a great movie, The Patriot.
“Will you stop at mere words?”
The Patriot – young brave lady
This is a great lesson that there is a time to take commanding action based on our core values and principles.
As the pastor in this scene said,
A shepherd must take care of his flock,
The Patriot – Pastor
and sometimes fight off the wolves.
In life, we are wise learn from the past but not get stuck in it.
If we dwell on history too long,
Kung Fu series – Cain’s priest
we do so at the detriment of the future.
If we ignore history,
we do so at the detriment of the present.
