Proverbs 27:7 says "But to a famished man any bitter thing is sweet." Our nation is hurting and many loud and inviting voices are saying, "Come join my side." Be careful. God's whisper says "Come join my side and I will make you ambassadors of reconciliation." By being reconciled to God we have the best potential to be reconciled to our neighbor.
So many voices instill fear. Resist. Reach beyond comfort lines. Make new friends. Listen well. Share your hope. Pray for transformation in hearts and cities.
The Kingdom of God will never arrive on Air Force One. However, the kingdom breaks out little by little when beauty and redemption pierce the darkness.....As we heed the words, "do not be overcome with evil, but overcome evil with good." May it be so Lord Jesus. May it be so.
