I saw a video today of a group of people vandalizing a cemetery by shooting the tombstones and kicking them down; stones with Magen David, crosses, names, dates, all stomped flat to the ground. My first thought and hope that this was a theatrical demonstration to produce a teaching tool. Then, as most people, I felt rather vulnerable.
I wish I could understand why or what caused such anger, hatred. I wish I could try to talk to them and tell them of the Creator's Supreme Love for them. I wish I could tell them how very blessed they are to be so healthy, striking, robust young people with such fine, nice clothes and shoes. I wish I could remind them they have the gift of action, boldness, drive, that only comes from Our Blessed Creator. If only I could tell them that they are very loved and cherished.
I wish they could understand that the Great Creator freely gave them life so that they could honor God and humanity.
I wonder if they ever think of why God wants them to live and why the names they are crushing are not living.
I know I must pray for these people and all who follow this ignorance. It is a very tragic ignorance to hate and seek revenge. God has His own methods and perfect Will: that all creation worship God and honor humanity.
Please, I must beg all to stop, look, listen, think; seek the Truth of the One True God in all things. If only we would just simply pray, reverence God and humanity.
I know if everyone would stop and pray, honor God in all matters, there would be an end to the destruction of the human soul.
God have mercy on me and on the whole world.
