I dont know why people claim to commit murder or atrocities in God's Name
as you know, I am a Christian, but I believe that God IS God is GOD nomatter what people choose to call Him. He is God. period. He knows who He is and that is all that really matters to me.
I came across a wonderful prayer, attributed to Mother Teresa, and it really spoke volumes to me, You may already know it, but here it is again, cos it is one of those timeless truths that can never be repeated too often IMHO
Quote:
People are often unreasonable, illogical and self- centered.........
forgive them anyway.
if you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives.....
be kind anyway.
if you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies...
succeed anyway.
if you are honest and frank, people may cheat you............
be honest and frank anyway.
what you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight............
build anyway.
if you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous.............
be happy anyway.
the good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow.............
do good anyway.
give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough..........
give the world the best you have anyway.
you see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God............
It was never between you and them anyway.
~~Mother Teresa~~
