Greetings Dear Reader,
When I look through my social media sites to check on my
friends, I am amazed at how many posts there are that still rant over this or
that political issue. It shocks me that
there is still so much vitriol concerning social situations. In a time when we should be doing all that we
can to embrace the love of Christ, we still look for things over which to be
angry.
Further, some of us have held onto conflict with friends and
family. We are still not willing to
build the bridges needed to work out forgiveness and reconciliation. This is an opportunity to give up hoarding
resentment and unforgiveness. We cannot
sustain holding onto offenses and anger to begin with, so giving it up is even
easier. I know it does not seem like
it. One can begin by starting a conversation.
While we social distance we can begin to lovingly interact
with those we have held guilty and unworthy.
We can write a letter or an email.
We can send a text or instant message.
We can build a bridge back to those for whom we hoard anger and
insult. It will not be easy but it will
be worth it. The more we empty our
stores of offenses, the further we have room for love and grace toward others. Why not make this time of isolation a time of
active reconciliation?
We can work together Dear Reader to emerge from this with greater
peace and harmony. We can empty our
hearts of resentment and bitterness. We
can stop hoarding the wrongs from our past and allow the time to heal our spirits. We can move down the path together with less
burden and more love. Shall we try?
Wishing you joy in the journey,
Aramis Thorn
