This is a "P.S." to my previous post. Praying for the dead souls, the corrupt ones, to awaken, doesn't mean we don't also go after them so that they can never hurt anybody ever again. They made their choices. And now we have an obligation to future generations to stop them. Prayer is the highest way to stop them. Maybe our prayers will turn their hearts. But action goes along with prayer. So, we can pray for the good guys to be led by God in bringing them to justice! Righteous anger is also good. Without it, no one would be stirred to right the wrongs. So, onward!! Keep praying, warriors!!
"Have courage and be kind." I love God & all His creation, history, and holistic living. Live with purpose. Let's see what Jesus unfolds!
Yep! One of the things that should set us apart as Christians is our love... His love... Jesus asks a tall order sometimes... But it's His way. I think the only way we can do that is through forgiving, even if just saying the words, so that the festering dislke of them doesn't get to us, doesn't turn us into who are aren't. And by praying for them -- again, even if it's just the words and not the feelings yet. (Am talking to myself too about all this... ;) It's definitely a discipline, isn't it?) Also helps to remember that if He could forgive the people who hurt Him, we can at least try.
