I wrote on someone's page today a comment about them saying that they are Praying against the Devil, and how the Devil is causing our problems and doing things that will hinder our Growth as Human Beings.
It's time for us to realize that there is no Mythical, right Red Horned something out there that's causing us to act like we act. It is us, it's us not taking care of our Brothers and Sister's It's us, not standing up for what is right, it's us not demanding to be treated like human beings. We can't blame some "Devil" for what's going on around us. We have to build our communities from the inside out from the bottom up.
The next time you talk about the Devil's power, think about your power, our power, our ability to change our environment, our surroundings, and to change our world.
There will always be time for Prayer, but this is the time for action. A time for people to speak up for what's right. A time to build our communities for the common good of the people. To show who God really is. LOVE and COMMPASSION, US. How can people profess to worshipping this Religion or that Religion when they talk of exclusion, Hatred, Violence, us against them. If you say you Love God it's time to show it. You can't hold the Devil in one hand and then hold God in the other, and Pray. And say you're making this a better place to live.
Open your eyes, look around at this beautiful Gift we 've been given. Do what's right to build our Community.
