We should spend our time preaching and teaching Love. Tending and mending.
If we have nothing nice to say just say nothing (a fool runs their mouth a wise person keeps quiet). Stay away from that and those that raise blood pressure with toxins and negativity. We clearly cannot live under rocks and are exposed to so much hostility and divisions. Let us not continue the pattern of walls with illusion of bridges.
They'll know we are Christians by our Love. Love for God, ourselves and each other. Not they will know we are Christians by our anger and outrage. By our Love, by our Love...
If we cannot preach and feed within our own personal space emulating the living Loving Word, we are impostors. We are none the less guilty of the violence and division we want so badly to cease.
In speaking with three very good friends yesterday about the daily strife we are amidst I felt myself getting riled up and BP rising--as did they. This is not who we are, our true selves. I know them and they me, we are peaceful and kind and gentle and of good nature and fun.
What shall we spread?? What shall we share?? What is the pulpit called by God to do???
--LOVE, nurturing, tending and mending.
--LOVE, nurturing, tending and mending.
The only place to begin is within. We must go in to go out!
They will know we are Christians by our Love, by our Love. Amen.
