I do not mean this in a trite way. I try to make a point daily to express my
gratitude that I have a faith that has a central figure that demands that I
live peaceably and love others. I cannot
imagine how hard it must be to live under the duress of following a faith that
breeds hate.
For those of you thinking that Christ followers do hate I
assure you that it is not because Christ wishes it. We are not supposed to have enemies but if we
do we are required to love them. I am
very thankful for a faith that requires love for others as its prime mover.
I am thankful that Jesus requires me to care for the needs
of others. I have actually had people
angry at me for doing this and it amazes me that they can put personal wants
above the welfare of those in need.
I am thankful for someone to follow who can teach me to be
more selfless and less selfish. I am in
debt for the life and blessing Jesus provides for me.
Wishing you joy in the journey,
Aramis Thorn
Mat 13:52 So Jesus said to them, "That is why every writer
who has become a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a home
owner. He liberally hands out new and old things from his great treasure
store."
