Let's Head Upstream

ML and I had an awesome time at the awesome David Crowder Band concert tonight at the Fillmore. Did I say it was awesome? It was awesome. And their opening acts, The Myriad and Phil Wickham kicked a$% as well. (pardon the limited vocab; sleepy...)

I can easily dwell on how I was temporarily hypnotized when The Myriad's Jonathan Young started bowing his guitar, or when the house literally shook each time percussionist Randy Miller let his bass drumsticks fall,...but instead, I'll share with you some wisdom that David Crowder left us with.

The difference between compassion and justice is this: Compassion is when people flock to the banks, ready to rescue the people who are drowning in the river. Justice is when someone heads upstream to stop whoever is throwing the people in the river.


We need loads of people to help those who are drowning, but we need folks to go upstream, too. So,...are you with me?
