| JUSTICE |
Justice
means to include, injustice means to exclude. To talk about
justice, is to talk about biblical justice but not about
political or legal justice. In political and legal world,
justice is equality, equity and rules. Biblical justice
(Good Shepherd justice) means excessive generosity, kindness,
mercifulness. It is not restricted to parity and rules.
¿How can the love be measured? The merciful love
which is the basis of the biblical justice is a love that
shelters, protects and accepts. |

| COMPASSIONATE
RISK |
One
of the actions demanded by the spirituality of justice and
mercy is to run compassionate risks (risks of co-passion).
Mercy and risk: Once one enters the experience of the other
person, one has to choose because many times one wants to
go away and goes back to those places and surroundings where
one feels secure and comfortable. Our spirituality pushes
to suffer with mercy, to run the risk, to stay with the other.
The spiritual answer impulses to listen, to remain with the
pain, to take the risk and to offer the human face of love. |

| PRAYER
|
For
the Good Shepherd foundation prayer is a ladder through
which one can reach the heavens. A life in pray must be
the essence of the working life.
One of the characteristics of the GSF is the great zeal
for spiritual progress. Without prayer, without inside spirit,
the work is arid, the efforts are useless.

| RESPECT
FOR THE LIFE
|
From
latin “respectous” that means veneration, attention,
reverence. Life is respected when differences among people
are respected and this starts by recognizing their richness
and dignity as truthful God’s children, when one lives
life’s reality coming up continuously through the
person’s diversity and expressed with kindness, love,
gratitude and tenderness. |
