John 16:2
In fact, the time is coming when anyone who kills you will think they are offering a service to God. John 16:2 This week I read about death, bombs and nails, and parents waiting for their children to come home after a concert. Life, innocent life, the radical one kills in the name of God. Not the God I know. My God is love. My God embraces my soul. My God offers me peace, a reward for loving, not hating. Yet, the weaving of history shows my God and his God to be the same. Sons of a dessert nomad, we are brothers, each having taken up weapons against the other. I am not innocent, neither are you, of claiming victory in God's name. But there is no reward for killing even the most evil among us, just the anguish of a God who is the essence of love. copyright 2017 - Donald P James Jr https://www.amazon.com/stores/Donald-P.-James-Jr./author
