Searching for Sabbath

Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind.
Do not repay evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary, bless, for to this you were called, that you may obtain a blessing.
For whoever desires to love life
and see good days,
let him keep his tongue from evil
and his lips from speaking deceit;
let him turn away from evil and do good;
let him seek peace and pursue it.
-1 Peter: 8-11

In this world we all live in
we must learn to be of one accord
one mind
It means that we must learn to see from another's point of view
it doesn't mean we must give up what we believe in
or let go of what we stand for
but that we must search out the other side
before there is no ground left at all
We are called to bless, to serve,
to love our neighbors as ourselves
to seek peace and pursue it
and peace is not "our way" or "their way"
there is only one way
there is only one love

In the face of national, verbal gnashing, these sacred words carry solace.
