GOD BLESS
CHARLESTON - PEACE BLOSSOMED IN THE MIDST OF TRAGEDY
In the midst of repugnant racial violence, peace broke out.
In the shadow of horrific hatred, love grew and blossomed.
Friends, when REAL racism
descended on a Bible study in Charleston, there were no protests. No riots. The
people of Charleston, black and white, wept together. Consoled one another.
Came together for those who mourned. When the worst of America raised its evil
head in Charleston, the best of America called out
to God, and love overflowed.
Today, rather
than reporting on destructive hatred in the streets of Charleston, media is left
to report on the amazing outpouring of love and unity. Ending the story as a
great punctuation, a simple faithful woman of God spotted the cowardly racist
and is responsible for his capture, yet, credits God.
Charleston stands in stark contrast to Ferguson,
Baltimore, and McKinney. Ironically, a deranged racist bent on starting a race
war by such a cowardly act actually witnessed racial unity and even prayers for
his own soul. Rather than hate, Charleston chose love.
