What To Change

We have swirling thoughts about what to change.

Do you have trouble with this equation like I do?

Saying we love God = Serving those hard to love and serve

It is easier to serve those we already somehow like or admire.

Those so different from us are more easily put off of our radar.

The grief to God is the same. A rejection is a rejection. We shouldn't think we are fooling Him.

So perhaps "what to change" is our success with the equation. Then,

When we say we love God,

He won't have to say,

Then why didn't you serve __________?

Lord, please forgive our trouble with the equation. Let that be our what to change. Then we know Your new year will be happier.
