Violence Does the Preaching

Jesus

Now is the time to speak no more. I will let the violence speak for itself. What is going on in the hearts of mankind? All is disturbed and troubled. The violence which mankind sees now will not be the end. Violence has become endless, one sad story after another. How many chapters does mankind need to read until it comes to the conclusion, “We must seek God’s help or we will end up destroying ourselves”? There is no need to keep speaking. The violence itself will preach to you saying, “This is the world when the power of God is set aside”.

Mary

I want to bind up the wounds but new and greater violence lies ahead. Therefore, I must speak to those who will listen. Soften your heart. Forgive anyone who has hurt you. Remove harsh words from your speech and renounce violence. Do no strike back and do not retaliate. Take no vengeance. Speak a kind word even when kind words were not spoken to you. Do this and you will be an invitation of peace to all. It is not easy.
