God bless!
Isn't sad how we see such division amongst the churches today? You can walk down one block and see multiple churches, all the same religion but none will even speak, why? I'm not pretending to sit here and tell you I have the answer but I will say, it's wrong. Who's fault is it? All of ours! We all seem to think we have the true religion, the right vision, the inside on what God really wants. But do we? Does God not require of us unity and understanding? Can we really understand Him (who we don't see) but not understand each other who we see every day? Where is the fault found? In our communication, if we all spoke less of us and devoted ourselves to speaking more of Him then we would all find that unified state of serving. Isn't interesting how the world has unified and we quietly have increased our division? The reason this is the case is because people put aside their differences when they have a common cause but the church can’t seem to do the same. Why? I guess the best question is: what is our cause? What are we really seeking? Who's message do we really want heard? None of us are perfect and I'm sure we all have much wrong but can’t we all just get along? If we don't figure this out soon our division will prove to be our demise. Christianity is not about you or me, it's about Him and us as one!
Getting past my own pride!
