Love's Message

As I close my eyes and drift away to a land where there is love, health, peace and blessings. I wanted to take the time to think and reflect.

     We all have our beliefs, opinions and views. Political, religious or with any concern. But I wonder: to condemn another in order to make one right, is that right in itself? When we think about religion specifically, the actual condemnation of another is simply reflected back to the one who is condemning. As humans we are going to sway away from something, even a belief that we feel hurts, or has condemned another, through the one who is doing the condemnation. It's the survival mechanism of fight / flight performing its functions. We have to also remember that it is not a religious belief that is doing the condemning. As condemnation comes through another person, or members who belong to specific groups. So we could even say that as humans we have to learn to grasp control of the fight and flight mechanisms, to decipher where there is actual danger.

     Part and parcel of faith is to attract those of differences. The intentions may be different, but in my view it's simply an act of religious unity, at the level of the microcosm. Disagreements are like purposely breaking another down, but really to build one up and break another down, that is not faith in action. What if we were to put religious differences aside, and think of God as me. The human as God? Sprinkling the essence of faith with each and every human encounter, and even as we treat, and think about the self. Because when all is said and done, I think: is it necessary to convince others of a specific belief or not? What if condemnation and convincing is doing more harm than good? Wouldn't it just be easier to aim to be a living truth? The truth that exists within God's message? I Am Love? Love, compassion and healing?
