We aren’t there yet. There’s a long way to go. A long way until we get back. Get back what we all know is missing. That thing that WILL bring us all back. If we begin to look in the right place. It’s not out there, not in social media, it’s not on the tv, it’s not on the internet, or next door. It’s only when one looks inside that it can be found. Peel back the layers and dig down deep. Through what makes you angry, passed what makes you scared, and break down what makes you stressed. Once passed all those layers will one truly be able to see. Once we look deep within and then the work can begin. Heal from within and work outwards. Your heart, your mind, your body, your spouse, your kids, your pets, your house, your neighbor, your community, city, state, country, world. But don’t do it for you. It’s not about you. It’s not about what you believe, it’s not about how you feel, it’s not about what you want or think you need, and it’s not for you to judge another. To judge them on their lives. Are you so innocent to cast a stone upon another. While hands are busy casting unrighteousness stones when they could be used to rebuild. Put down the stones and pick up the mortar. Build a new foundation of righteousness. Let each stone be paved in with purpose. Layer by layer of careful and meaningful masonry. Once you, yourself, build a solid foundation then the real work can begin. Each time a knock down and then another accomplishment, once achieved there’s more to go because if you are still HERE, you ain’t THERE yet.
“Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne; love and faithfulness go before you.”
Psalms 89:14 NIV
“a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build,”
Ecclesiastes 3:3 NIV
John 8: 1-11
