Sunday Musings What about those who don't go along with the mob?

A preacher gets up, quotes scripture, and reminds the congregation that God loves the outcast — those in fear for their lives — the poor, prisoners, the disabled, and the oppressed.

In response, an outraged mob tries to kill the preacher.

Is this the New Testament or The Washington Post?

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

♀️ All FETUSES are anatomically FEMALE until sexual differentiation begins, approx 7 weeks after conception

Since the NEW Exec Order defines sex according to what ANATOMY existed at CONCEPTION, 100% of Americans are now LEGALLY FEMALE.

If you’re upset by a woman prophetically speaking truth to power, allow me to introduce you to Jesus’ mom:

“God has brought down rulers from their thrones but has lifted up the humble. God has filled the hungry with good things but has sent the rich away empty.” -Luke 1:52-53

I woke up praying for #BishopBudde and all who stand to preach a message of hope, grace, mercy, and love in an environment where those things are demonized. Bishop, I don't know if you'll ever see this, but you encouraged so many people this week. God is well pleased with you.

Morning chuckle at tip jar in the local coffee shop.

Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

Same here. I’m with you.

It's OK if You're Not Ok. No One Who's Paying Attention Right Now, is. “How are you?” I asked my dear friend Julie, as she fell down into her chair across from me with a loud exhale.

No one is OK right now.

At least, no one with working empathy and a knowledge of History who’s paying attention.

Remember:

It can be sad. It can be tragic. It can be disgusting and depressing and discouraging.

But it doesn’t have to mean this is who we are now. It’s what our country is doing right now and that’s not the same as who we are.

Who we are isn’t up to him.

Breathe in hope.
Breathe out despair.
Breathe in love.
Breathe out hate.
Breathe in grace.
Breathe out vengeance.

Today, I breathe in the Holy Spirit. I better understand the hope the Hebrew people had for an earthly Messiah, and I remind myself that our Savior is alive + reigns above.

Me!

Add me!

Dr. King said it best

#MLKDay

‘Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.’ — Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

On #MLKDay, we honor his legacy by choosing love over hate, justice over injustice, and hope over fear.

January 19, 2025 You hear sometimes, now that we know the sordid details of the lives of some of our leading figures, that America has no heroes left.

MLK Day Post…Who are our heroes? Richardson tells us: open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

Mexican tin ornament: a red heart circled with silver perforated design and shot through with an arrow.

Let love be genuine; hate what is evil; hold fast to what is good…
~Romans 12:9
