Trying Times

“Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
Where there is sadness, joy.

O divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
To be consoled as to console,
To be understood as to understand,
To be loved as to love;
For it is in giving that we receive;
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
It is in dying to self that we are born to eternal life.”

Proverbs 4:7: “The beginning of wisdom is: Acquire wisdom; And with all your acquiring, get understanding.”

It is in times like these that the Church has an opportunity to demonstrate the love of God to people who are far from Him. He is our fortress and our stronghold. One of the core principles of Love INC is unity.  Sadly, we see little unity demonstrated even within the body of believers. Now is the time for God’s people to show His light into a dark world for ALL to see.
