The old charismatic Catholic song says:
we are one in the Spirit / we are one in the Lord / we are one in the Spirit/ we are one in the Lord / and we pray that all unity / may one day be restored / and they'll know we are Christians / by our love / by our love / yes, they'll know we are Christians by our love
The Love of God is the one thing that will unite the world. All the divisions of doctrine and creed and culture disappear at the foot of the cross. This is no mere Pollyanna-ish notion, but a biblical reality.
Each time we show love to someone, it is from God, for God is love. When love is received, we are changed for the better. Each time we receive love, a space is made within us for more love to come in.
An ancient book of creative wisdom says, " Love bears all things, believes and hopes in all things. Love never fails."
Love never fails. Love changes us. Love is from God. God is love.
