Second Thought

From Sojourners, May 1986

Don't be afraid—only love

Real confidence isn't tainted by self-righteousness or stubbornness; it has the gentleness that reflects divine Love.
Life these days can seem pretty complicated, requiring careful thought.
Bearing witness to God's healing power is fundamental to Christianity. It is never a "little" thing.

When we pray for God's guidance, we not only have to listen, we have to be quiet enough to hear.
A student had failed his grade twice before. But maybe a teacher's spiritual sense and love could help make a difference.
