Justice? Lock Him Up

Comey’s Reaction to Gen. Flynn’s Guilty Plea
23 “Take away from Me the noise of your songs;
I will not even listen to the sound of your harps.
24 “But let justice roll down like waters
And righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.
25 “Did you present Me with sacrifices and grain offerings in the wilderness for forty years, O house of Israel?  26“You also carried along Sikkuth your king and Kiyyun, your images, the star of your gods which you made for yourselves.  27“Therefore, I will make you go into exile beyond Damascus,” says the LORD, whose name is the God of hosts.
Amos Chapter 5, Verses: 23 – 27

I Don’t Scale Up

The main difference between his life and my own was that he was always involved to the hilt with local things, doing things for the people that he knew.  I had more of a calling to global things; I’m mostly thinking about what I can do for people who live far away, people that I’ll never meet.  So I don’t have much time to be a volunteer like my father.  In a way I’ve been selfish, because the things that I do tend to be recognized widely, while he worked tirelessly in a small community.  He was the kind of a person who provides the “lubrication” that’s necessary to make the world work.  Furthermore, the things I do don’t scale up;  there isn’t a need for ten of me in the world.
