We live in a world filled with hate. A cruel world where mistakes aren’t allowed, anger is overblown, and people become victims at no fault of their own.
Often the ones inflicting the pain and spewing the anger call themselves Christians, yet they ignore the fact that our Lord was one who lived a life filled with grace and kindness. Even on the cross, after suffering so much pain, he asked His Father to forgive those who caused His pain, and He cared for the criminal hanging on the cross next to Him.
How is it, that we Christians can forget the basic tenets of our beliefs, and turn so quickly into people of rage and anger, often targeting the very ones that we call family, ignoring the years of love, ignoring the years of service, and instead focusing on ourselves and our anger?
