Where
will you step?
We
step in but we can so easily step on.
Step
on feelings, step on hearts, step on trust.
Crush
the fragile bridge that has been built between two souls.
Much
of what comes between us has taken time.
We owe that beautiful work a bit more time. We owe the extra moment to
inhale before we speak and pray before we respond. Taking the high road when the low road has
become the fast lane.
In
the marketplace the low road speaks quick, it is loud and sexy and full of
opinion. It is natural. It comes easy.
Supernatural
takes time. Allowing someone, the
greatest One to work through us takes time. Supernatural is not popular. It does not get its way. Rather, it leads to something better,
something holier, something that does not marginalize or condemn.
It
points to right. It cares little about
popularity. It walks softly. It
builds. It encourages. It seeks to understand without fear of shame. It
recognizes all have something. All have
worth. All have a story and a perspective
and a position.
All
have a god. We speak and without even
knowing it we have introduced them to ours simply by how we have stepped.
Pursue
the things, which make for peace and the building up of one another. Romans 14:19
