I seem to be hearing many strong racist comments & intentional discourteous comments over these last few weeks.
I can only say that these attitudes & comments are an offense and appalling to me as I listen to these words spoken from other people, all sorts of people (men , women, youth, more mature, academics,practioners, and many others). The sad truth is that there are so many sad attitudes between people right around this world & Australia is not exempt from this cancerous attitudinal curse.
I want to light a candle instead of just cursing the very tragic darkness .....the truth is JESUS can give us all a whole new perspective on everybody & everything if we would just listen to His voice of love , forgiveness & healing.
Wherever Jesus went on earth He comforted the disturbed & disturbed the self-serving comfortable.
To the outcasts , the rejected people of His society there was much grace , mercy, love & healing shown. He was always leading the way with grace towards people who were different to Himself and for me that is an example & a model I would want to imitate.
Just imagine for a moment if all RACISM throughout the world ceased............
Just imagine if all BITTERNESS between people was released.........
Just imagine if all people regardless of race or creed were loving & tolerant of each other..........
Just imagine if you & I were people who actually lived , loved , forgave , respected others the way JESUS did & does..................
Today when someone is a different colour to you , displaying a different attitude to yours , has different thoughts to you how about showing some of the love , grace & respect towards them that JESUS displayed(displays).
Red & yellow , black & white they are all precious in His sight ..........Jesus loves the little (big) children of the world....a good example to follow, why not try it.
Read REVELATION 7:9 (have some vision of what could be)''AFTER THIS I LOOKED AND THERE BEFORE ME WAS A GREAT MULTITUDE THAT NO ONE COULD COUNT, FROM EVERY NATION, TRIBE, PEOPLE & LANGUAGE, STANDING BEFORE THE THRONE & IN FRONT OF THE LAMB. THEY WERE WEARING WHITE ROBES & THEY WERE HOLDING PALM BRANCHES IN THEIR HANDS.''
I can only imagine , how about you?
Praying for all readers today .
