I WILL STAND WITH TRUTH AS IT COSTS MY LIFE

"I'm deeply impressed by that moment when Christ stands alone before the world figured in Pilate. The truth is left alone, his own followers have been afraid. Truth is fearfully daring, and only heroes can follow the truth. So much so that Peter, who has said he will die if need be, flees like a coward and Christ stands alone." Oscar Romero

Start Loving, A WITNESS TO THE POWER AND JOY OF THE ALMIGHTY:

Of course I will not really know how long I'll do this, until my time is up!

But I am so "alone." For years now I am blessed with some occasional, and loving, supporters.

BUT I AM IN THE TRENCH, I AM IN THE "FOXHOLE" ALONE, FOR MORE THAN A DECADE. AND I HAVE NO INCLINATION TO STOP, THAT I MIGHT FIND "COMPANY." I HAVE EVERY INCLINATION TO CONTINUE TO STAND WITH THE TRUTH, ALONE, FOR AS LONG AS I HAVE "BREATH." I FIND THIS AMAZING - A TESTIMONY TO THE POWER, JOY AND ABUNDANT "LIFE" OF THE "ALMIGHTY.'

Oh, I want company! For selfish reasons. For reasons of successful Militant Brotherliness, my religion.

BUT, TRUTH = LIFE. STANDING WITH "TRUTH" IS BEING ALIVE. Yes, it may well cost "PULSE," a small price to pay.

"Abstract truth has no value unless it incarnates in human beings who represent it, by proving their readiness to die for it," Gandhi

"There are times when you have to obey a call which is the highest of all, i.e., the voice of conscience even though such obedience may cost many a bitter tear, and even more, separation from friends, from family, from the state to which you may belong, from all that you have held as dear as life itself. For this obedience is the law of our being," Gandhi
