I was raised to be kind and to care about the people around me. My family considers that to be a true family value. We are all, more often than not, good tippers and kind to those who serve us. That is the ones who go to church and those who do not. But to be truly good and decent all the time is difficult for me (think rush hour traffic) and I need some help. I have found that my work does nothing for my relationship with God. Getting out of the way and letting Him do His work in me. When that happens I am more aware of being in His presence and that produces fruit. The fruit that He produces in me is kindness, patience (even with a slow waiter or other drivers), compassion, charity, generosity and a heart that bleeds for the unfortunate, vulnerable and hurting people in the world.
Official rhetoric has helped fuel an escalation of tension between the United States and Iran. Do recent negotiations mark a change in direction, or just a temporary detour from the highway to military attack?
