In light of all the negative press those in
professions and positions of trust receive in our modern live, I found it so
easy to say about some of these occupations, “Yes, but you can’t even trust
them these days.”
How awful that we should even think that way, but if we were honest, we’d have to admit that we do. And once we start thinking that way, it is so easy to say, “What’s the use – there’s no hope for this world. It’s getting worse and worse.” I can’t deny that.
But today I realized that the same basic instincts the Creator put into the first man and woman and their offspring, all else being equal (that is, assuming the mother has not impacted her body negatively with drugs), He still puts into every little baby born today. To me this means that every child still has the chance to have moral principles, to listen to his/her conscience and to both recognize good from bad and to act on that knowledge. What he/she needs are role models to guide him/her in learning these behaviors. Will you be that person for someone today? There is still hope for each of us individually. – Murrells Inlet, S.C.
