Yet people still hold to their prejudicial beliefs. I find this challenging when I am in a church setting, after all, we are all God's children.<br /><br />Yet, who am I kidding if I think I am free from these human behaviors? I think we are all called to continue to examine our hearts and act in ways that are charitable and good. So often we fail - I do anyway! And yet, isn't that the real message of Dr. King and of Jesus too- to keep at it and to know that God is at the heart of it all, transforming us. We can never do it alone.<br /><br />Thanks for this! As you know, I wrote on a similar topic today. Thanks for coming by!Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07181529277715646835noreply@blogger.com
