Message
We Aren’t Equal
Our founding fathers wrote the “all men are created equal.” I believe they were talking about human rights when they wrote that. Because the fact is, we are not all created equal. As High-Heels has pointed out, with effort, determination, and a willingness to work, we can certainly achieve some success living her in the United States. But we are not created equal. Some were born with more intelligence, some with more athletic ability, some with more money and far greater chances in life. In the United States we have public schools and college grants and funding to try to make sure that all citizens can get a college level education. But let’s face it, college just isn’t going to happen for some – the odds are too stacked against them.
We are not equal. Some just have easier lives than others. So, what do we do with that? We can shake our heads, beat our chests, and blame God for it all. Many do just that, always trying to climb that ladder and reach some kind of equality in terms of power, wealth or recognition. I see many people hurt, jealous, angry or bitter because they just haven’t reached that certain rung in the ladder.
But we have another choice in terms of what to do about this inequality. We can love God and our neighbors. We can do what God would have us do which is to accept the gifts we do have and be thankful for it. We can love others and help them out. This opportunity to love and to give to others is something that everyone can have.
I am not created equal to some. So what? God loves me anyway. God loves me for who I am and isn’t comparing me to the fastest, smartest, or kindness human around. I can keep loving God and I can love my neighbor.
Prayers
Prayers for Drum Major’s daughter, Hunter, who got into an MVA yesterday. Prayers of thanks that she is ok and that the people in the other car are ok. Prayers of love and discernment for Drum Major as he figures out options for another car for Hunter as her car was totaled. Prayers of thanks that the wife of Mr. Jinxy is doing well health-wise and that the health scare she had was not serious.
