Fast for peace
A jubilee is an opportunity for a nation to reinvent itself. It is under no obligation to be the same afterward; it can be redeemed.
In the Bible, the King of Nineveh learned that God was so disgusted with the injustices of his city that He was preparing to destroy it. Redemption was thought to be a lost cause; Jonah was incarcerated in the belly of a whale for three days after refusing to go and preach there. To avert disaster, the king led his people in a day of fasting, and the moral power generated by the shared self-sacrifice demonstrated a sincere offering of atonement for their past misdeeds. The leadership of the King of Nineveh inspired God to spare his nation from annihilation.
After delivering his June 14 toast, Trump must lead the nation in a 24-hour fast for redemption. Days of fasting and prayer are an American tradition; presidents Washington, Jefferson, and Lincoln all utilized them. Fasting—to willfully abstain for a period of time—requires an intention, and as a group experience can establish a shared intention. The United States can reinvent itself, selecting a new path to peace and prosperity.
Fasting is simple; just drink water and abstain from food, other beverages, stimulants, and recreational intoxicants. With the economy shut down for the general strike, Sunday, June 15 can be a day of reflection; individuals are under no obligation to be the same after the Jubilee.
