Beliefs And Opinions

Opinions that differ

Are always welcome

Except when they

Get personal.

 

Small minds use this attack

When they debase

What a person believes-

But who is the fool?

 

Better to stand with God

Than worry about

The slings and arrows

That can only kill the body.

 

Men have died for their beliefs,

And they are remembered,

Not those who killed them,

Who must answer to a higher court.

Hate the Sin & Not the Sinner
through seeking the Higher Principalities of God
we can enrich our lives & even be a blessing to others

Through Christ Jesus Our Prince of Peace

I had a wonderful teacher in high school who used to say that you may not believe as another person believes but you must respect his right to believe as he does.

Love ya!

There have been wars over this for centuries....
It has always mystified me why others feel they should
attack another soul for their beliefs... It is such a
personal choice... It is very personal to that soul and
that soul should keep it close to their heart...

I also believe no soul should push their personal beliefs
on another for this is wrong... I do have a high respect
and regard for the strong conviction of others :)

Lovely as always George

Love and Light

Great one George, the Lord is my refuge....I choose God, choose to be a folower of Christ.

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
