Called to Bless

We are called to bless
And be blessed.
We do not seek to get even
With others
For unjust suffering.
Resolve the insults and the evil
With blessings;
Demonstrate to our enemies
Our good behaviour,
Seek for Peace, pray for peace.

This particular sonnet sums up our Christianity as good as anything possibly can.

Isn't it so true that everyone wants to get 'even'...America has become 'sue happy'. Not sure if you have the same problem 'down under'...

Thank you for sharing this beautiful poem. Did you write it?

PS: Like what is written on your blog header :)
