Don’t choose the lesser evil; choose the greater good. – Jocelyn Soriano
It is dangerous whenever we get ourselves used to the idea of choosing the lesser evil. At the end of the day, evil does not become less. Evil grows, and it grows in proportion to the consent we give it whenever we think we have no other choice.
There is always an option for good. If that wasn’t so, God wouldn’t have commanded us to avoid sin.
Always choose goodness. Even if it were just a tiny spark or a small flame. By choosing what is good, we allow that flame to grow strong. That flame enlightens another, and soon, many are blessed with its light and warmth.
Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think about these things. – Philippians 4:8, WEB
