I’ve seen this meme (and others like it) all over social media. Will using what I would characterize as a fly-by, broad-stroked, invocation leave a lasting impact? Better, I believe, to get to the source of the unkindnesses with which we have marginalized each other. Why not get real? It’ll cost us in the dispensing of forgiveness, sourced from the love, mercy, grace, and forgiveness extended to us all by Jesus Christ. Receive it, then pass it along to those who have wronged you. Accept the fact that some folks will need more. Give it. Be generous. Lavish it, if you have to. And finally, keep no record of wrongs…that’s what the power of God’s love makes possible. Then, hopefully, as much as it is possible to live at peace with one another, we can move on…together.
