Evil

I went to church tonight in Des Moines. The pastor talked about three kinds of evil, personal evil, corporate evil and spiritual evil. It gave me a lot of food for thought. What is evil? Where do we see it in our community? What are we doing about it?

I see evil at work. I see people more interested in things that don't matter than helping the really desperate and hurting. I see people spreading dirty laundry instead of reaching out to others. I see gossip and back biting taking center stage while people need food, shelter and love.

Reach out and spread love. Love is the antedote to evil.
