ps from ps:
On an important day in our country’s history and as we remember those we lost on the first 9/11, can we follow the footsteps of Jesus and all work a little harder on being less divisive and remind ourselves how lucky we are to live in the US of A?

It will require some basic components of Jesus’ teaching:
1. More acceptance, less judgement.
2. More listening, less speaking.
3. More compromise, less digging in.
4. More grace, less condemnation.
5. More seeing another’s perspective, less narrow viewpoints.
6. More love. And more love.

As our firematic fire responders continue to run into burning buildings and dangerous MVAs scenes, they never ask party affiliation, sexual preference or religious background. They just use their gifts and training and do their work.

23 years after our worst national tragedy, it’s now up to every one of us to use our gifts and training from Jesus (see 1 thru 6 for details) and do our work.

Lord, stand with all who are hurting today.  Help us to use our gifts, remember your training and do our work.  Amen

Still in One Peace,
ps
