After that initial chuckle and thinking of our mutual friend this would apply to, I stopped. It really isn't so funny after all. Not meaning to be preachy, but probably was received that way, I wrote "Yeah, that's the easy part. It's the forgiveness part that's hard." And that, my friends, is the truth.
Yesterday, Hubby hit his sermon out of the park (imho). Some received his message with gladness; some did not; and some stop listening after he mentioned the Republican Party and others after he mentioned the Democratic Party.
We are a divided people. Judging is easy. The Republicans are bad/ the Democrats are bad/ beware of the socialists/ the independents are clueless. We judge. We call names. We divide.
But the message of truth is God's got the evil taken care of. Our job is to love, to forgive, and to treat each other as we want to be treated. It's not really hard...or at least it shouldn't be.
I like cardmaking. I started a blog called The Eclectic Scrapper and I've let other things get in the way of my ministry and I do want it to be a ministry. Long years ago I wanted to start a postcard ministry- fun, right? Well today is the day.
The person I want to go "all Jesus" on is getting a postcard!
