“Let he who is without sin cast the first stone”.
Words we used to learn before society killed God.
As I posted on the story about the school shooting, it is time we turn back to God. I’m a Christian, but one who has been too shy to speak about it. Now I will start being bold. Find God. Hear the messages of love, peace, faith, truth and beauty.

“Blessed be the peace makers, for they shall be called children of God.” This precept should be taken seriously by our defense and foreign affairs elites.
John Comer, in his recent book Live No Lies, posits that “the litmus test of our faith is the degree to which we love our enemies.” Of course this is simply the teaching of Jesus which is impossible without Love dwelling within us. Nothing is more desperately needed now. Easy to say. Hard to live. It is the only way forward. As Jesus added to his invitation to love our enemies, we must also pray for those who treat us unjustly as Katz and his wife were treated. I have found that even a simple prayer for those who are my enemies can be the almost imperceptible start of love not only being released in my heart, but into this love-starved world.
It seems we live in an age of resentment. In the story of Cain and Abel, we now think Cain is the good guy. After all, he just wanted equitable treatment.

Great post. Be shy no more. The red letters have all the wisdom we need. It is the responsibility that comes with them that terrifies so many.
