allopenstarDo you know what my heartbeat is? The one thing that I am truly convicted about, and I desperately hope will not be erode away as time passes me by?
ACCEPTANCE.
To accept people for who they are, to be completely sincere in acceptance, and to understand things from their point of view.
You may not agree with them, but you accept their way of thinking. You don't degrade it/them, don't try to persuade them by words alone and try to get them to see things the way you see it.
Maybe you can pray for them, pray for God to change their perspective, but you never EVER put down who they are, and what they believe in. Their self worth and self esteem are not there for you to attack.
Accept them, see them through God's eyes, and let God lead your relationship with them. No prejudice, no slurs, no jokes.
Acceptance is key in my life. This is who I am.
