If Not Now, When?
All this talk about being a "human be-ing" NOT a "human do-ing" -- kind of reminds me of Martin Luther's argument that "works" don't matter! And I need to tell you that this is a doctrine I do NOT affirm.
Yes, we sometimes get so caught up on do, do - pun intended - that we lose sight of the world's beauty and our inner being. Inner depth, focus, spiritual wholeness are essential aspects of human BE-ING. But for wholeness, we also need ENGAGEMENT . . . focused action in support of those things we most deeply believe.
Recall the wisdom of the first century Jewish scholar, Rabbi Hillel: "If I am
not for myself, then who will be for me? If I am only for myself, then what am I? If not now, when?"
Perhaps in this Election Year, and in these days when the earth cries out with pain, we are called to be spiritual midwives, that by our actions, we may bring our values to birth, and serve the needs of a troubled and hurting world.
