Summing up: Be agreeable, be sympathetic, be loving, be compassionate, be humble. That goes for all of you, no exceptions. No retaliation. No sharp-tongued sarcasm. Instead, bless—that’s your job, to bless. You’ll be a blessing and also get a blessing. Whoever wants to embrace life and see the day fill up with good, Here’s what you do: Say nothing evil or hurtful; Snub evil and cultivate good; run after peace for all you’re worth. God looks on all this with approval, listening and responding well to what he’s asked; But he turns his back on those who do evil things.
1 Peter 3:8 MSG
Psalm 22:27-28: “All the ends of the world shall remember and turn to the Lord, and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. For the kingdom is the Lord's, and he ruleth among the nations.”

Wonderful in theory but - at least for me - so hard in practice.
It is definitely hard to put into practice always in real life, TB. I agree.
But good to remember to try and put into practice, and pray to the Lord about it.
Thank you, Reverend.
Like so many things in life, TB, it's a journey & a goal toward which we must all strive.
Exactly, Linda. Thank you.
