can’t we all just get along

How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity!

- Psalm 133:1

 

Once again, I find myself heartbroken by people.

Just because we have a difference in opinion does not me that we can’t still love each other.

Just because someone keeps quiet about their opinion on a subject, it doesn’t mean they don’t care.

Politics, race, religion, money have all become huge topics of conversation and many times the final blow to a fragile friendship.

In recent years we have watched families divide due to differences in their outlook on one subject or another.

Back in 2016, a friend wrote to me:

“I wish we would live like Jesus lived.  Families lived together.  Everyone in Nazareth knew each other, everyone knew who was a good person and who could not be trusted, and they all encouraged each other to live their lives in peace. 

There were no phones, no TV, no PCs, no one really travelled far away to work and live… that was the exception and not the rule.  

These close personal relationships bound people together. I know we would not have all these luxuries, but then God never gave all those things to Adam and Eve, and He loved them with all His being.  He didn’t even build them a home; He made a garden for them.   It wasn’t until after the flood that the scriptures speak of rain or cold …the need for shelter.”

I agree, I wish that we could live in unity as they did back then.

Today’s world is too full of pain.

I am taking a break again; spending time with family and just trying to refresh after the personal stress from the last year. 
I will be back on August 16^th.

Until then, please be good to each other.
