we are called to love as people

You would think that as far as humanity has come over the generations and centuries, we would learn to just love each other - no matter what. why can't we just put aside our differences and realize we are all the same? We all have a living, breathing human physical body that is capable of understanding human emotion and pain. Just because someone looks different, acts different, believes in something different does not mean we must destroy or antagonize them.


Believers in God are called to love no matter what. There is nothing wrong with exercising your view on gay marriage, abortion, religious matters, education, what you believe is right and what you believe is wrong, but there IS something wrong when you cross the line by antagonizing someone that believe differently than you.


Christians seriously need to get their act together. There are so few that genuinely approach his word and profess the beautiful essence of who he is. ACCEPTANCE is the first and foremost action a christian should have for his brothers and sisters, even if you do not believe in the same view as someone else. LOVE the same sex couple that wants to be married, LOVE the person who does not believe in God, LOVE the person that is overwhelmingly passionate about God, LOVE the young woman that seeks an abortion because she has been raped, LOVE the mentally ill that has been diagnosed with a painful disorder, LOVE and ACCEPT EVERYONE because that is the only way to get things done in this world. 
This is a beautiful thing.
These people are a beautiful part of humanity.
Just because you don't agree does not mean you have the right to shut out and torment and antagonize and especially take the rights away of someone who believes otherwise.


I am utterly appalled by how many people just don't know how to simply love. To just be able to wrap their arms around somebody and tell them they are worth something in this world.
I'm so tired of seeing believers in Christ doing the opposite of what he calls you to do. You're making the image of Christ look closed minded, selective, and not accepting. It's such a distorted view of who he is.


WE ARE CALLED TO LOVE AS PEOPLE. NOT REPRIMAND.


I want to live my life as an offering. I want to surround myself with people that believe something different than I do and with people that believe the same as I do. That is the only way we can learn, accept, and realize there truly is something greater than ourselves.
I need to get out of America for a little while because this place is getting ridiculous.


One of the most amazing moments in my life is being in the Vietnamese orphanage when I was seventeen years old. I was surrounded by young children and adults that did not know who God was, they did not believe in him, and they were practicing different views and traditions that did not mirror what I was taught. 
But something very beautiful happened to me, and I realized the only way to get things done in this world is to love someone, I mean really love someone. It's amazing to see a group of people from all kinds of backgrounds and cultures come together and connect.
Simply because we are human. We are all in this together.
Christians need to accept non-christians. And non-christians need to accept christians. I'm not here for an argument, I'm just here to tell you in my overwhelming hippie view that love is a powerful thing. I have felt it in ways that I never imagined were possible.


I will always love you no matter what.
