CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

We tend to make judgements about people based on our preconceived notions of who a black person a trans person a Muslim person any person is. Why do we do this? What is the point? Why can’t we just love and accept who people are?

John 15:17 says

“This is my command: Love each other.”

1 John 4:8 says

“But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love.”

As someone relatively on the outside of religion, when I hear the hateful words coming from leaders and others who claim to be godly, it makes me think I don’t want any part of religion. So I plead with you who do proselytize your faith to set a better example. The example of Christ to love everyone.

Words are important. Be mindful of the impact your words have in all situations.
Proverbs 13:3
Whoever guards his mouth preserves his life;
he who opens wide his lips comes to ruin.

​
MOLESKIN:
Excerpt from Bible in one year by Nicky Gumbel

Your words are powerful. With kind and encouraging words, you can change a person’s day – or even their entire life.
Proverbs 10:11-20
Speak words of love
Your words have the power to bring great blessing: ‘The mouth of the good person is a deep, life giving well’ (v.11a, MSG). But words can also do a great deal of harm: ‘The mouth of the wicked is a dark cave of abuse’ (v.11b, MSG).
Words have the power to destroy relationships: ‘Hatred starts fights’ (v.12a, MSG). On the other hand, they have the power to heal relationships: ‘But love covers over all wrongs’ (v.12b). ‘Love pulls a quilt over the bickering’ (v.12b, MSG).
Control of the tongue is vital. ‘When words are many, sin is not absent, but the wise hold their tongues’ (v.19). Abraham Lincoln said, ‘It is better to be silent and thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt!’
Throughout this passage, the writer of Proverbs contrasts ‘the mouth of a fool’ (v.14b) with ‘the mouth of the righteous’ (v.11a). One speaks words of hatred (v.12a). The other speaks words of love (v.12b) and wisdom (v.13).
Words of hatred (v.12a) lead to violence (v.11b), dissension (v.12a), ruin (v.14b) and spreading slander (v.18b).
Words of love (v.12b) are a fountain of life (v.11a); they cover over ‘all wrongs’ (v.12b) and are ‘choice silver’ (v.20a). If someone has offended you, don’t return the offence. It is said that holding a grudge is like letting someone live rent free in your head. Instead, return hatred with love. Speak well of the other person even behind their back and you may find that your love puts an end to the bickering and heals the relationship.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Henry Nouwen in his book, Gracias, states that there is “a ministry that I keep losing, although I am constantly called back to it.  It is the vision that ministry means first of all searching for God where people are lost, confused, broken and poor.  Often I have gone to such people to bring them back to God, to the sacraments, to the church.  But that is acting and living as if God is where I am, and as if my first task is to bring others to my place.  When, however, God is with the poor and marginalized, then I have to dare to go there, live there, and find them there.  I now realize that I can be with people without having to make them think my thoughts and say my words.  I can be free to listen and slowly to discern where God shows his merciful face to me.”

We, as believers in God, in our attempt to “save” others are sometimes guilty of trying to convince people to think our thoughts, to live as we do.  We need to realize that God is already there with these people, already working with them.  We need to see God in them.  By being with them, joining them, finding God in them, they will not only see God in us but God within themselves.  Then they can more fully believe in God as we desire them to do.
