Our big idea for this Sunday is LOVE PEOPLE!
Such a simple command......As long as the people are OUR kind of people! When they are different from us, when they think differently, when they look different, when they behave differently, that’s when the loving gets hard!
I had the privilege of attending my daughter's pole dancing competition on Saturday. There were some people there, in fact MOST of the people there, who were VERY different from me. It was a great reminder to me that God‘s command was not conditional upon whether we agree with or even like those people. We are to LOVE. So my prayer for each one of us is that we will see all… ALL… people with the eyes, heart, and mind of our loving, non-condemning, Savior Jesus! Our God-assigned job is to LOVE PEOPLE (we can leave the judging to Him, He’s much more qualified for the job ). So let’s get to work!😍😍
