Be kinder than necessary ", ( words to
live by ) ~~ said a family member of one of the Charleston nine -- who's family
member was killed inside of the church !! ~~~ May God richly bless her !!! `
These precious souls never cease to amaze me with their love, and forgiveness,
and great wisdom (as posted on my friend Carolyn’s page FB).
Today the African-American neighbor still
struggles to be called equal to be seen as worthy, to fight for freedoms which
by constitution should already be theirs. We watch daily African-American men
compete and try and are still told they aren’t enough and then are called lazy
and useless. I ask how many others would survive the message of hundreds of
years of being told “not good enough?”
Today I stand humbly next to my
African-American friends and pray for them and for myself. I pray that all humans will one day walk in
love, peace and acceptance of one another.
Love is the most powerful essence in the world. When we find a way to
spread truth, love and compassion as easily as we spread hate and destruction
what a different world this will be.
