Morning: Psalm 55; Exodus 40:18-38; Colossians 3:12-17
Sometimes
children, like adults, can be cruel; they learn this from the ways of
adults. Bill Plotkin writes on human maturation. He thinks 50% of
North Americans have not matured much beyond adolescence ... They
haven’t yet worked out who they are and may protect their own
vulnerability by offering judgments about others. Jesus wonders about
human maturity, too. For him, the community leaders and legal experts
are like children, taunting one another in the market-place and refusing
to accept the truth themselves, or shape their lives in accordance with
it. Any of this sound familiar?
