We can interact with others all over the world in seconds. That means that our neighbours are often people who live many thousands of kilometres away. Thankfully, through Compassion, we can "love our neighbour as ourselves".Rodney Olsenhttp://rodneyolsen.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4858531060422596451.post-48807523012355817332017-07-28T17:11:58.492-02:302017-07-28T17:11:58.492-02:30Yes, He always finds a way!

"Christians" can be an ugly lot sometimes.... it's more hurtful when those who claim to follow Christ betray and fail to love as Christ loves than those who claim to not. Having personally been through some of what you're talking about, I feel your pain. Hugs!! I love what you shared and your choice to cling to hope despite the ugliness.

And it is such tangible proof of the difference when we see our own kids changing and succeeding in life! Another aspect I love is their unapologetic sharing of Jesus Christ...that's where the true difference lies. Thanks for your post!!
