What If??

Tuesday September 27th, Philippians 2: 1If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, 2then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and purpose. 3Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. 4Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others. O that is going to fly in the real world……not. But maybe it should. What would happen if we did run the world in such a way that we consider the interests of others more important than our own interest? What would happen if we saw in the face of others, the face of God? What would happen in this world if we loved others even if they were not loving to us in return? It might be worth a try. We just might get rid of things like war, starvation, greed, hatred and terrorism. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting different results. We have tried war; maybe we should try tenderness, compassion, humility and love. What have we got to lose?
