We Are Human
3 May 2003
Were every detail of your own life to be revealed on the front pages of a newspaper after you reported something on someone else, would you be comfortable with that? Few can truthfully answer, ”yes.” Some can, because they don’t care what others may learn about their weaknesses. Some can, because they lead truly pure lives.
Others could not stand this sort of scrutiny. Either their pride and self-esteem would take such a hit that they couldn’t live with themselves or the very objective reporting they so publicly advocate could get questioned after some scrutiny of their private matters.
The next morning David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it by Uriah. He wrote: ”Put Uriah in the front line, where the fighting is heaviest, then retreat and let him be killed.” 2 Samuel 11:14-15 Today’s English Version
