USCSI REFLECTIONS

Jesus asked them, what had they gone out to the desert to see? “A reed shaken by the wind?” Someone who shifted his position with every passing fashion, someone who just said what people wanted to hear? No. People went out to hear someone who spoke the truth without fear or favor, who was not afraid to say what needed to be said even if people were not too happy with what they heard, even when it pointed directly at them.  (Sacred Space)
