Letting love lead the way

Jesus made it a point to reach out to the forgotten, the rejected and powerless. He called for a kingdom that inspired people to share what they had with those who had less. I am concerned we are not headed in that direction. The apostle Paul was facing much of the same wave of the powerful ignoring the weak and forgotten. He called up the followers of Jesus to engage in a counter cultural activity. He wrote to a generation trying to remove itself from the culture that gave all power to the rich and powerful, "Let us consider how to provoke on another to love and good deeds, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encourage one another". The resurrection of hope, empathy, compassion and love may, like all resurrections, happen from the bottom up. I thank you all for walking through your life and considering letting love rule your hearts. May His peace be your companion. Along the way, PN
