for some 'strange' reason I saw the following two posts on my FB page this morning, and read them both
they are both exquisitely written by two highly intelligent people who are the unfortunate but horribly ordinary representatives of their people in north American society of today, and what they have to say Is what we need to hear .. for real..
I really want you to read them
reading these posts is for your own profit, and for the benefit too of those you influence
they serve as poignant reminders of the quite unjust and unfair society in which we live, and move .. and perhaps too of a mindset that follows us around ..
our children and our friends need to be affected by this injustice and discrimination in such a way that we all move in the direction of absolute equality on the basis of our shared humanity, our shared genus 'in the image and likeness of our common creator God'
further, if we are who we claim to be as disciples of Jesus, we have an absolute injunction by our master himself to love everyone as THE defining characteristic of those who claim his name ..
peace to you
