What do we believe? Insidiously, hate and harsh judgement has snaked around our hearts and fallen from our mouths. Inside of our souls opens Pandora's box, emerging this hate filled energy that splays itself across the landscape of our souls.
This energy seeps into unfulfilled spaces of our hearts and the venom clings to all of us.
Weaker souls become stronger. In fearful ways. Stronger, wiser souls become whispers.
Whispers that do not disappear. We know, in our hearts, that judging others, wishing for downfalls, and spewing hate and meanness are not right. We know it, deep inside. Anger, even justified, does not right life. Anger does not conquer and win. It destroys.
Religion is not God's words. It is not the teachings of Jesus. False paths do not take us to spiritual teachings.
And folks, we have a lot of false paths out there. Anyone who believes the path they walk on, organized by teachings that instill anger, righteousness and harsh judgement is the path, have lost direction.
Forgiveness isn't a right. Who are we to think we have the glory of choosing what is maligned and forgiving? Have we become God in our own right?
The spiraling economy and the loss of money is revealing our nature-and I ask you, dig into your hearts and tell me, is this us?
Divide, Conquer, Rule-this is the sign on a church I pass, each day, on my way to work. The message never changes. Is life a battle to be won? Did Jesus set up a commando unit to capture souls?
Captive souls -ransomed for money.
This is what we have become today.
