lop off his head?



the music we make is the love we share
i have learned one thing while living alone in Nashville,
we are who we are because of who we love
we are not our gift
not our talent,
not our ideas or beliefs,
not our successes or failures,
we are who and how we love..
this paints our beliefs, gifts, talents..
and when we do not love,
we cease being human...
we become something less than human..
i was watching television this weekend,
in between my personal non-stop home film festival,
yesterday the tv preachers all had one thing in common,
animated anger..
they were bathed in sarcasm and witty parlance's of self righteousness,
i wondered aloud,
"is this what Christianity has become in this America?"
an angry right wing political, out of context biblical, bully?
this was not the media I was watching,
it was religious programs..
what is going on, who has kidnapped our religion?...
maybe like King David when he was attacked by the stone thrower,
hurling insults at David for his perceived bullying,
maybe Christianity has become this image to secular America??
David's men wanted to lop off the head of the accuser,
but David said no,
why?
Because maybe God had sent him..
selah..
