In a world of "me first" and not liking those who are different from ourselves, God's grace and mercy is the power that wakes each of us up every single day. God loves all of his creation. But his creation has turned against him. We want freedom from restraint, the freedom to make our own decisions. But freedom without the truth only leads to a false freedom. Freedom without boundaries is like setting a hungry tiger loose in the middle of Istanbul.
So God's ways are not our ways, his thoughts are not our thoughts. So we must surrender to his thoughts and serve his ways versus our own ways. Submit to his all powerful, all knowing, all loving thoughts. God is love. He is right. He is our creator. He gave you this day, he gives you every day.
And so here is another thought of his that may turn your world upside down. But believe it, you will make the world a better place by obeying it.
“Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you.”
–Luke 6:27
