For God So Loves

For God so loves the world and those who live here on planet Earth. Be mindful of Venezuela, Palestine, Ukraine, and other places that don’t have peace and comfort at the moment. Blessed be their children and those who mourn.

Quote Of The Day

If you want to do violence in this world, you will always find the weapons. If you want to heal, you will always find the balm.

Rachel Held Evans

Quote Of The Day

Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.

Quote Of The Day

The peace produced by grace is a spiritual stability too deep for violence – it is unshakeable.

Thomas Merton

A Ramble About Violence

As we all know the world is a violent place. So much of it is not fighting but something else. There is economic, political, environmental, ecological, social and spiritual violence that does as much harm you can’t see. It’s truly troubling what humans do to each other and to nature.

People have such promise for peace and they have the ability for unreal violence too. All this is senseless tragedy that doesn’t have to happen if we are intentional about pursuing peace, understanding and reconciliation.

How we treat our fellow man and the planet says a lot about us. We can do better. All of us can.

Be kind to the world around you. Peace begins with all of us.

Quote Of The Day

Only a fool seeks peace by inciting violence.

Frank Reagan from the TV show Blue Bloods as played by Tom Selleck.
