God gave us one very simple, clear command: love. He sent His Son to deliver that command and show us how to love. In the end, Jesus gave up His earthly life for us—out of love. Love, love, love.
The problem is all you hear and feel is hate, hate, hate. It doesn’t matter the topic: religion, politics, environment, whatever. It’s all hate, hate, hate. Jesus has to be shaking His head in disbelief.
Today, we look for what separates us; not what binds us. We use words like left and right and every other tag to separate one person from another. What we don’t do is look hard at what binds us. We are all human beings created in the image and likeness of God. We are all His children saved from our sins by Jesus Christ. But, no, we can only focus on what separates us, and hate each other as a result. That’s really sad!
I’m making a renewed commitment to do my best to look at people around me as God does—all outward variations on the same theme of being made in His image and likeness. All children of God commanded to do one thing: love.
Join me in looking past the outer and feeling the inner in people. That God inner. And walking, and talking, in love.
Have a LOVE-FILLED day!!!
