2/27/23--Life's Blood Cries Out
When I read today’s entry about lifeblood flowing out from violence in the Genesis verses and from generosity through a donation at the blood bank, I thought of several phrases that use the term blood, such as “blood, sweat, and tears.”
How are we using our blood, sweat, and tears today to take a stand for what we believe in–for peace, for justice, for equality, for love? What about in more concrete ways–for feeding the hungry, for clothing and sheltering the poor, for comforting the incarcerated, for protecting those who are marginalized?

That's a really good question, Gina. I like to think that violence is never the right choice, but I have learned that ideas that use words like never are often inaccurate. Perhaps someone with a deeper understanding can weigh in on this.
