I was listening to a sermon by Ravi Zacharias and he gave this little tidbit of greatness that I want to share with everyone. And yes mom, I will post pictures eventually.
"One of the just men came to Sodom determined to save its inhabitants from sin and punishment. Night and day he walked the streets and markets protesting against greed and theft, falsehood and indifference. In the beginning people listened and smiled ironically. Then they stopped listening; he no longer even amused them. The killers went on killing, the wise kept silent as if there were no just men in their midst. One day a child, moved by compassion for this unfortunate teacher, approached him with these words: 'poor stranger, you shout. you scream. dont you see that it is hopeless?'
'Yes I see that,' said the just man.
'Then why do you go on shouting and screaming?'
'I'll tell you why, little boy. In the beginning I thought I could change man. Today I know I can't. If I still shout today, if I still scream today, it is to prevent man from ultimatly changing me.' " ~Some Jewish Guy whose name I dont remember
very interesting.
