Today's culture has bought into this mindset: 'A wrong deed is right if the majority of people declare it not to be wrong'.
Pastor Rick Warren 'Everyone is either a skunk or a turtle. In families there are those when angered who blow up & those who clam up. The skunk blows up & everyone around them knows it because it smells, the turtle clams up - neither response is correct.' youtu.be/8Fdfc2tugB0

Leading On Empty @waynecordeiro
To light a spark within another the desire to search the depth of a subject and to watch them go deeper than I have gone is a rare gem that is so very precious when it is experienced.
The tool Jesus used to gain access into lives who knew him not was compassion. When compassion arises within you towards another give it expression. To suppress it chokes an opportunity to touch that person with God's love.
May this be a continual pursuit each day and in every relationship that we have been blessed with...
