Humanity at what cost? Are we SPECIAL in the large world?

The Lord stated we are all made in his image and he knew us before we were born.  So, we are special in his eyes.  We are called to be Salt & Light to those in the world and to show love. We are all unique creatures. Each person has different DNA, fingerprints, and thoughts.

Our thoughts are being attacked by Satan daily. We watch as our freedoms are taking from us. We are idle in while everything our Country is founded on is taken away bit by bit. Freedom, what is it? Each of us has our own ideas but, it should be for the masses as a whole not just for “special” groups.  Be humane to all is one of the biggest things God has called us to do.

Matthew 25:31-46, New American Bible translation

31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit upon his glorious throne, 32 and all the nations will be assembled before him. And he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
33 He will place the sheep on his right and the goats on his left. 34 Then the king will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father. Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.  35 For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me,
36 naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, in prison and you visited me.’
37 Then the righteous will answer him and say, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink?  38 When did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you?  39 When did we see you ill or in prison, and visit you?’ 40 And the king will say to them in reply, ‘Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.’
41 Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you accursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink, 43 A stranger and you gave me no welcome, naked and you gave me no clothing, ill and in prison, and you did not care for me.’
44 Then they will answer and say, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or ill or in prison, and not minister to your needs?’
45 He will answer them, ‘Amen, I say to you, what you did not do for one of these least ones, you did not do for me.’

If we treated everyone with humanity, we would have no reason for laws which infringe daily due to “special” groups.  I have no ill feeling toward your gender, sexuality, race, origin, beliefs, faith, religion or intelligence. I may support your views to be treated fairly. Many of these “special” groups have an agenda which I do not support in any form or fashions. I am a sinner myself however, I struggle to do better each day and live by God’s plans for me.  I can’t live your life for you and I try not to sit in Judgement of you.  I have major flaws in which I want to hide from others but, I know nothing is hidden from God. I try my best not to openly/publicly display my sins and failures.

“Nothing in all creation is hidden from God. Everything is naked and exposed before his eyes, and he is the one to whom we are accountable. Hebrews 4:1 ”

We can try hard to hide from God but he not only sees our deeds but, he sees our hearts. Please, Lord, help me to be the kind of person you wish me to be. Let me surrender my whole heart and life to you. I know I am judged by many who think I do not worship in their ways or act as they may.  I don’t pray in the “right way”.  We are not sent to destroy but to love.  How do we chose to love those who go against what we think is right? How do we bring Salt & Light?
I know as a white person many would say “you have White Privilege” however, I think the rules have gone to the extreme opposite of anything defined as “White Privilege” White Privilege is a myth put forth by those who felt oppressed. There were more White(European) people in this country than other races, it is just a fact that things were geared toward their ideas.  But, punishing others hundreds of years later is not Justice! Now, there is little protection for those who chose to assimilate to the American Dream. Everyone is being attacked for their perception of the 1st Amendment. We can be attacked for standing against someone or something. We can be attacked for doing something as a young ignorant youth. We can be attacked for doing something we feel is right. We can be attacked for standing up for ourselves. Social media is the death of people. Just bits and pieces taking out of context cause harm to others.

We need to protect our heritage as a Nation under God.  No “special” privileges to outsiders or those who chose not to look at the greater good of this Nation. Be a united force to be dealt with however, having the compassion to those in need but not trying to force idea or rules on others. Tolerance is one of the ways to be Light & Salt to others. Just because I don’t agree it is being viewed as racism, bigotry, hatred, or something else. I am just here to be the best I can for God and to be kind to others. Who am I but a mere mortal? I have no special powers except what is given by God. Living int he secular world only to desire the spiritual realm of my Lord.
