My how I've changed with age. Once lost on the sea of Religious difference, with the secret of hate towards those who didn't see it my way, my deepest and darkest trials have humbled me until I loved.

I now put my arms around people who I once barracaded by my Faith, Knowledge, or ability to interpret mysteries, and the peace I have found does pass understanding.

Got a long way to go, but I promise you, I'm working on this one!

You know, I remember a few days ago I spoke of 1 Cor 13 in reference to the subject that we were discussing at that time. (Don't remember what the subject was.) Some one posted how that 1 Cor 13 didn't apply to that situation.

I just feel that we would be wise in letting 1 Cor 13 apply to all areas and discussions in our lives. Might not be able to make it binding doctrine in all cases but the principal would certainly keep us in line with each other and out of trouble. Just a thought....

Another thought! See, I've had two right here together. Isn't that amazing. How many of us ever read our post before we post them? Someone told me years ago.... "Before you send a heated letter, sleep on it and then read it again before you mail it."

I think some times if we would simply read what we're about to post in some cases we might not post it. I know some posts I have read I feel sure that the poster did not read it before he/she sent it. ...... Now, let me go back and read this post before I post it !!!
