OPINIONS AND THE POLITICAL SCENE

There is so much in the media about civil rights and what is going on in the world that help to shape our opinions. What I’m here to say is that God rarely cares about our personal opinions. We have the right to have them, but that doesn’t mean they are holy. He only wants us to treat our neighbors kindly, do not judge (even to judge people who we feel are judgmental), and to conduct our lives according to the Gospel. It is as simple as that. Isn’t it a great tactic of the devil to keep us busy so that we are not mindful of spiritual matters?

With that said, the Church as an entire body does have something to say about a lot of the issues going on in the world today. We need to let that govern our lives and just do what is kind and loving. When it comes to dealing with people around us and in saying things to them we can remember two things:

1. Is it loving?
2. Is it necessary?

We need to stay focused on the Gospel and its teachings. In that way, we will not become negative and remain loving and decent minded people. May God continue to bless us and our lives with every good thing.
