Escape
Saturday, October 31st, 2009Hola Claire,
Excellent article. Although I can’t imagine living on Mars or anyother similiar planet, I will cut to the chase.
I have been one of the social outcasts since kindergarden. Did the drug thing in the sixties, lived for three years in a Christian commune, was a prision guard for 18 years etc.
Because I don’t buy into the Christian political right and all that that entails I don’t fit in with my “brothers”. I now know that there is NO political or human solution for mankind. For me, as a Christian, there is only ONE thing, “Love God with all your heart, mind, and soul. And love your neighbor as yourself”.
I now live to share this simple message with any who will listen. I plan to go to Colombia with my wonderful Colombian wife and do whatever I can to help the most vulnerable and helpless of all Gods people, children.
We wil leave in a few months and I can’t wait to go. God will open the doors that need to be opened to minister to the poorest of the poor.
There is no hope or solution for mankind. Only falling at the feet of Jesus and living only for Him by serving the widows and orphans who have No One to help them.
Institutional Christianity leaves me empty. I leave it for the reality of caring for those who can’t care for themselves. May you rest in His arms and love Him by loving the unlovely.
Hasta luego,
Don
PS: I’m sixty one and ready to goooooo!!!
