The Pledge of Love
I’ve listened with interest and disgust over the last little while at the debates in political circles around the world but particularly in the United States.
Sadly hate and prejudges seems to be flooding into our society from all directions. Intolerance is everywhere.
Even men and women calling themselves Christians are being drawn into it.
With that in mind I felt prompted to write this. Simply called “The Pledge to Love”. As a Christian. A follower of Christ Jesus. I have intended it for Christians. That being said I being said I believe it expresses moral values that everyone can understand.

I pledge...
To Love.
I Pledge...
As far as it depends on me...
To live at peace with all people.
I Pledge...
Never, Never, Never! To attack anyone...
Physically, or verbally.
Even if I vehemently disagree with them in any way.
I Pledge...
Never to demean anyone.
No matter their race, their ethnicity, their religion, or their lifestyle.
I Pledge...
As far as humanly possible,
To uphold the dignity of all whom I come in contact with.
I Pledge...
To obey the words of Christ Jesus who said,
“So in everything,
do to others what you would have others do to you
for this sums up the law and the prophets.”
Matthew 7:12.
Please think about it.
