Daily Journal: #109 I Can’t
This election shit finally got to me. I’ve erased this post three times. I refuse to write and post condemning words about my fellow Christian no matter how stupid their words and actions. Sometimes love looks like letting people be wrong.
How do I know I’m not wrong? Well, ultimately I don’t. And that’s the fucking difference. But, I read the Gospels every single day, the Lord of “turn the other cheek” and “love thy neighbor” does not support a President of division, conspiracy, and disrespect. Period.
“You have heard that it was said, “Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.” But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well. If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles. Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.”
That’s the post.
