a thought

People quarrel about all sorts of things.
Sometimes quarrels turn into heated arguments, then into warfare.
I don't like disputes when they turn serious, when they begin to hurt, when words turn into weapons.
But it happens.
It even happens among Christians, especially when they forget their name.
And when it happens in churches, in assemblies, at synods--I die a little.
Then I think of G.K. Chesterton, when he said:
 
              Let your religion be less of a theory and more of a love affair.


Ah yes, so let it be!
