Micah 2:1-5. Matthew 12:14-21

The Father grieves for all who sin and suffer and for all who fall short of His will and loving purpose. He suffers in the oppressed and in all who are hurt and wounded by their fellowmen. But He suffers too in those who cut themselves off from love and mercy for they choose the judgement which they bring upon themselves. All are free to choose between the good and evil action and commitment, but continued choice of the selfish and the evil way weakens and corrupts the will and the desire for right action.

All faithfully committed in love and in self-giving are cleansed and purified, enabled and empowered to be Our healing and enwholing hand to others in the power of Our saving, sanctifying love.
