Thoughts: Attitude, work ethic, love, respect for others, that doesn't know any color (Dabo Swinney- Football coach at Clemson University). Once Martin Luther King said in his "I Have a Dream Speech", "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character." The parable of hte Good Samaritan is about someone of a different country helping the total stranger- with a different religion and race. Human beings need to treat other human beings with love and not hatred. This is true of the things that divide us even now. Jesus came to preach love. Human beings find ways to divide from each other. The dream of Martin Luther King is the hope of love. It is a love that involves sacrifice and wins by turning the other cheek.
How can you be kind to someone today who looks different, thinks different, lives differently from you?

Prayer: Lord, help me to be more loving- especially toward those who are different from me.
