Evening: Psalms 93, 96; Matthew 2:13-23
Physical dangers are part of life; they make us leap to protect children: the perils of storms, sharp edges, social unrest, war, and traffic. More ominous are the dangers from those who seek to harm children ... Jesus’s parents took him away when they became aware of the threat of King Herod. Most dangerous of all, though, are the world’s violent ways and values, which harm the souls of children and propagate violence in them. Maybe guarding children against learning violence is, paradoxically, the most important protection we can offer the children and the world?
