Day 16

Holy War – Alicia Keys


One of my greatest sadnesses is when I recognize how religion has been used to create fear and hate and exclusion. Its been used that way too many times to count, almost enough to make it seem inevitable. But to witness the welcome, the love of another, the change that is possible and made as result of the love of God- that is incredible. To say I will look at something differently, because Jesus has taught me to create space and to see the value in someone that others have actively hurt, that is good news. In this season of waiting, and this season of increased violence against LGBTQ2S+ people, may our faith in God make us people who actively choose love and welcome.
