I Corinthians 13

Posted on by alkassner

I Corinthians 13….Love is patient; love is kind…

A Bible truth that our country can use about now. The hurt and anger that the United States is experiencing will only be resolved through kindness, tolerance, and peace. Armed presence during peaceful, prayerful demonstration teaches our children to mistrust the very values we preach.

We teach about kindness and love and the power of prayer. What good are the teaching and preaching when a rifle is held up against the peace loving and prayerful as we see in Standing Rock and other peaceful demonstrations?

I am not religious, but I do love spirituality. Finding our way back to the simplest most basic teachings will help lead our country away from the edge and “eve of destruction.” Our country can not survive as a nation without the patience and love described in lCorinthians.

As Americans, let us raise up our hands and rally against the threatening upraised firearm, and sing together for kindred spirits to gather and work for what is right and good.

I write from the heaviness of my soul to touch at least one other who can hopefully understand the direness of my words.

So much I want to say. So little space. Thank you for reading a little bit of my heart.

On any given day, I can be found drinking coffee in my favorite shops while people-watching in Kalispell, Montana. However, the art of writing is first in a line of my many interests. My genres of choice are poetry and short fiction. I also enjoy hiking, biking, watching movies and the occasional game night with friends. “Interneting” and “facebooking” with long distance internet “sisters” and family are activities that I also find enjoyable. My current writing goals include a compilation of an anthology of poetry and short stories entitled “Twice the Tornado”, plus a historical fictional novel based on the life of a Bitterroot Valley, Montana pioneer woman. Currently, living in the Flathead Valley of Montana, I am in a close relationship with my best friend ​and help care for our family of four dogs and two cats. Surrounded by rivers, trees and mountains, I find plenty of inspiration for writing topics. Living in close proximity to Glacier National Park, I am able to form interesting characters from the many tourists passing through. I guess I could say that I have chosen the perfect time and place to return to my writing career.
