All the optimistic talk in the world will not put food in people’s S c r i p t u r e s stomachs or tools in their hands. The current Administration has been accused by its opponents of being uncaring and unfair to the poor. Those in office react with alarm to any such suggestion. It G od’s language would be far more effective to react with increased federal B y K n udsen efforts at job training and health care benefits to the By FR. RICHARD MURPHY unemployed. President Nixon was once attacked with the phrase "benign neglect.” That seems a very fitting term to People sometimes accuse God of not caring for them because He does be reapplied here for the present lack of official concern not, it seems, answer their prayers. He appears to be cold and distant about aid for the poor. and (let’s face it) unreal, especially when we need someone to talk to. We cannot criticize those in office without encouraging all Silence is a dreadful weapon, cutting off communication more who can assist their fellow citizens in need to do so effectively than any fence.

Lack of sustained today. consultation by professionals can set the stage for bad things to follow. God is never really silent or uncaring or far from us. As the writer of St. Louis Review Wisdom says, history shows that God never fails to take care of His children. The Old Testament abounds in examples of men who trusted God, and not in vain. Abraham was instructed to go to a far-off land. He trusted in God's promise, and became the father of all believers; Isaac was given to him and Sarah, a promise fulfilled. O ther view points Moses was summoned from Pharaoh’s court to lead the Chosen People out of bondage into freedom. The story of the Exodus is also the " I n e v e ry li fe a little rain must f all, ” or so the saying goes. story of a God who cares; His actions speak louder than words. Yet, according to a recently issued report of the National But God’s greatest utterance, His supreme communication with Academy of Sciences, the rain that is falling is acidic and mankind, was when he sent Jesus, the very W ord of God, into this world.
