Will You Listen?

A Dutch missionary came back to Holland as the Second World War was beginning.  His friends said to him: "Tell us that we should do about Jews.  Should we help and harbor them?  Should new turn them in?  Should we do nothing?"  He said to them:  "I cannot tell you what to do.  I can only tell you who you are.  Once you know who you are, you will know what to do."

It is always the same.  We know who we are and therefore know what is expected of us.  The only remaining question is, will we listen?

Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
