Two passages of Scripture are on my mind this Inauguration morning, from the Psalms and from Isaiah:
“Keep your tongue from evil and your lips from telling lies.
Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.
The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are attentive to their cry…
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted…”
“God has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners.”
God is Love, and we are here to do Love’s work, to bind up each other’s broken hearts, to do good, to seek peace, to work for freedom. Let’s do this. Also, let’s give out a lot of hugs today. I am pretty sure Jesus said that, too. The disciples just forgot to write it down.
