Psalm 14

3 All have turned aside
they have together become corrupt,
there is no one who does good,
not even one.

What I find challenging about this verse is the idea of collective corruption, communal corruption. Not only evil within individuals, but among them: our individual fears, insecurities, and wounds bleed out and hurt the people around us.

We have a planet filled with broken people that inevitably create broken systems, only egging each other on in selfishness and destruction.

I don't want to acknowledge that my individual refusal to care for "the least of these" (Matthew 25:40) contributes to a global disparity between the rich and the poor.
I don't want to see that my individual dishonesty in relationships is the same strain of dishonesty in hedge-fund economic practices.
I don't want to admit that my individual passivity towards sex trafficking results in even more women, girls, and boys being brutalized.

And this is what I love about God, that he offers not only individual healing, but communal restoration as well.

He is just that big.
