I think… YES!
Why? Because we’re winning… BIGLY!
It seems like at every turn we’re winning. Many have suffered in this war, many tragic episodes. Unfortunately, real war takes much.
The reason I’m posting this is because many of us know that tomorrow isn’t Jesus’ birthday. It feels a bit hollow knowing that.
BUT, why not blaze a path towards true understanding? Just try again.
To be honest, I don’t worry much about when it happened, as much as the fact that it DID happen. I believe that God became man and His sacrifice on the Cross and His blood are what matter most. What saves us.
Do I believe that the Son of God was born on 12/25? Nah, don’t. But if we can humble ourselves and try to love them, maybe we can heal faster. I don’t know, but I hope.
We’re winning. Let’s Celebrate the Love of Christ.
I don’t know how we do those things fren. I struggle all the time with “knowing” that what we have been told are lies. (I’m not saying I know all the truths either, but like most here I’m constantly looking for them).
All I’m saying is to meet “them” (friends and family) where they are now. They need love and understanding even if many don’t deserve it.
I cringe at the spells put on people, but I believe that God (with our help) can change many of them. The truth will be waiting for them in bite size morsels.
Thanks for the thoughtful post.
