May we be one

Morning: Psalms 1, 2, 3; Daniel 1:1-21; I John 1:1-10

Evening: Psalms 4, 7; John 17:1-11

Conflict about religion and faith saddens me. Jesus dreams that those who trust in God (by whatever name) will be one. In faith, we all need a spiritual home ... Just so long as we do not think that our spiritual family has the whole truth and those who see things differently are wrong. The Anglican Church is my spiritual home, but I still dream of finding deep unity and harmony with people who choose different spiritual paths.  Believing the same things does not necessarily serve truth. Being one, though, is life-giving, lasting truth. May we be one.
