The Worst Thing

In some reading I'm doing for my DMin residency this summer I came across this quote from David F. Ford that seemed relevant to a lot of people - myself included. "It is not true that the worst thing that can happen to us is being wronged, wounded, or even killed: The worst thing is to do wrong." Sometimes we let the wrongs that have been done to us be an excuse for us to wrong others either in thought or in deed. We aren't responsible for what others do to us. But we are responsible for what we do to others.The Holy Spirit can heal us from what others do to us, but what we do to others can cut us off from the Holy Spirit.
