Jude 1:2 … Yours in Abundance (06/15/17)
“May Mercy, Peace and Love be yours in abundance.”
~ unknown (Jude 1:2)
Even though the author of this biblical epistle was obviously quite worried about his theological opponents (i.e. others who “pervert the grace of our God”, something which is actually impossible to accomplish – see Jude 1:3-4), the Wisdom of this particular verse still shines brightly through that emotional, ego-tainted haze …
For deep-seated Mercy, profound Peace, and unconditional Love are always ours in abundance – for real Peace comes from giving true Love, true Love comes from showing pure Mercy, and pure Mercy is always nothing more than a choice we can all always make; the choice to bravely Love those nearest by who seem “least deserving” of the same (Matthew 5:43-48 et al).
Amen … Let it be so.
