Today, impact the world... don’t let the world impact you. We have enough darkness... need a few more night-lights... :)
John 17:14-19

It would mean being light in darkness. Being different enough to be noticed. Being strong enough to help others. Being free enough to loose others. Having enough joy to share a laugh with someone else.

The essence of being a believer is to be in the world but not of it. It appears to be counterproductive and maybe even impossible to do, but think about its impact if you could pull that feat off today (with the help of the Holy Spirit, of course).

"Though our feelings come and go, His love for us does not. It is not wearied by our sins, or our indifference; and, therefore, it is quite relentless in its determination that we shall be cured of those sins, at whatever cost to us, at whatever cost to Him."

“A Christian society is not going to arrive until most of us really want it: and we are not going to want it until we become fully Christian.”

Hatred paralyzes life;
love releases it.
Hatred confuses life;
love harmonizes it.
Hatred darkens life;
love illuminates it.

“There is a final reason I think that Jesus says, ‘Love your enemies.’ It is this: that love has within it a redemptive power. And there is a power there that eventually transforms individuals.”
Martin Luther King, Jr.

“That is why Christians are told not to judge. We see only the results which a man's choices make out of his raw material. But God does not judge him on the raw material at all, but on what he has done with it.”

We are in such a victim culture and it’s driving me crazy!!! Disagreement is the same as hatred, disapproval is the same as bigotry and to point out the fact that something is morally wrong is SHAMING!! The freedom of conscience is being taken away. We must fight to preserve it!
The basis of our confidence in Christ is that He remains the same throughout time and eternity. Same love. Same compassion. Same forgiveness. Circumstances do NOT change God, but God can change the circumstances.
