Clouds do not rain everywhere all the time. Clouds rain on specific areas and the job of nourishing the earth get done. We cannot endure the pain of “all lives matter.” It is a wonderful goal to work towards, a goal you get to in steps such as “black lives matter”, “domestic violence victims matter”, “children lives matter” and “immigrant lives matter.” Fighting for any one of these issues will change our lives, mark us, perhaps even wound us. Love hurts, yet love also heals. God calls us to love one another.
