A Peaceful World

To make certain all of the world is at peace we must start with ourselves.  We can make the changes.  We MUST make the changes.  Let us no longer pray for peace, but vow to create it.  We act as though God himself will reach through to heavens to change the world.  He will not.  We have to change it.  We have been the ones that for centuries have used the earth, held our people in bondage and have waged the wars. Let there be no more.  Let us pick up our swords, lift up our hearts and fight for justice and freedom for all people, all races, and all nationalities.

Every day we can make a choice to serve humanity.  We can choose NOT to beep that horn when someone cuts us off, to offer spare change when we see a homeless person,  instead of buying that extra dessert , we can offer a gift for a child who goes without for Christmas.  We can be mindful and thankful for our circumstances, knowing that it could be so much worse.

We are mirrors of each other.  Our brothers and sisters who go without, that struggle with the every day today, can be us tomorrow.  Lend them a hand, give something of yourself, teach them how to make their life better, and show them how to love.  In many places all over the world, there has been too much hate, too much crime and too much battle for our children and their children to know what love is.  Some people need to be shown love in order to give it.  I ask that you show love this holiday season and celebrate the true meaning of the spirit of the season.  For a child, a person, who has never known kindness, the outreach and care of even one person, even a stranger can mean the world of difference and change a life for ever.

The following organizations are participating in outreach activities.  Won't you join us in taking part to send a gift or give this holiday season? Just choose ONE.  It's as simple as a few clicks of your mouse and with that we can all unite the world just a little more this holiday season and touch a life.
