“Greeting the Faithful” 2 Peter 1:1

Simon Peter, a blood servant and apostle of Jesus Christ,  a- To those who have obtained b- like precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ: 2a Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, -KJV

Love is not poor

Love is rich

We are welcomed in this love

We are the many

We are the majority

But we are not the meek

Still,

We shall inherit the earth

We are here to receive

And we are here to give

We have free will

And we have a choice

What does making a difference mean?

Are our intentions pure

But our actions flawed?

We must be true to our divine selves

The divine both within and without

We must be able to receive love

In order to give love

Jesus was a good man

He drank wine

And accepted the down trodden

Into his fold

But we must remember he was that

Just a man

Perhaps a man who preformed miracles

But he still was just a man

Perhaps when he ascended to heaven

To sit at the right hand of the Father

He became divine himself

And totally pure

As we all do, when we die

Its is okay to believe in God

It is also okay to be an atheist

Jesus would love and accept you

Either way

Do not let anyone tell you different

This would anger the Son of Man

To no end

Perhaps he would be angry

As he was in the temple

When he flipped the tables

Of those who were bringing capitalism

Onto Holy ground

I Imagine he would be mad

At us for many things

And feel great shame

For every single horrible thing

That was done in His name

Over thousands of years

If Jesus did return

As he said he would

And I do believe him

He would hide

And suffer greatly

For the sins of his fellows

So remember

You are okay

And loved as you are

If you are the meek,

The struggling

The hopeless

Jesus loves you

And it will get better
