Follow the golden rule... Period!

Follow the golden rule... Period!

Psalm 133:1 Behold, how good and pleasant it is?when brothers dwell in unity!

For a culture that says that we should have 'tolerance' and 'accept everyone' for who they are, we sure have more division than ever. Instead of tolerance and acceptance, we have labels, division, and arguments. The only time we 'love our neighbor as ourselves' is when they agree with us, vote like us, and don't talk about their faith. If God wanted us all to have the same opinion, He would have made everything grey and fed us manna for eternity. (As some of you read this you are probably saying... why grey?!? Not the point!). God gives us the ability to choose, have an opinion, and be unique. He also gives us rules and guidelines to live in. God calls us to love and respect each other as His creations. That doesn't mean we have to agree, and we definitely don't have to accept sinful actions or tolerate attacks on our faith. To love and respect, doesn't mean we compromise who we are or compromise our faith. I can respect and love someone who wants to be a 'furry', I'm just not going to put a litter box in my office for them :) . As believers, we should be a light no matter how dark the world gets. Follow the golden rule, even if you don't agree and have a blessed day!

Very good. Let's ask God for wisdom to be able to follow Jesus. Let ask: LK 11:5-13 "“And I tell you, ask and you will receive; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives; and the one who seeks , finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. What father among you would hand his son a snake when he asks for a fish? are wicked, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?”
