#2 One God - "God is Love"
=========================================================
Religions throughout the ages have proclaimed that humanity is but one big family. Most of the principles followed by one religion are also echoed by another.

To help gain a better understanding of just how similar the various religions are, I present the following collection of writings based on the principle of "God is Love"

Note, a different principle is introduced in each issue of the "Affirming Life" eZine.

Sane and insane, all are searching lovelorn For Him, in mosque, temple church alike.

For only God is the One God of Love, And Love calls from all these, each one His home.
- Sufrism

God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.
- Christianity

He that loveth not, knoweth not God. For God is love.
- Buddism

Love is the beginning and end of the Torah.
- Judaism

Love belongs to the high nobility of Heaven, and is the quite home where man should dwell.
- Confucianism

#4 Hurt
=========================================================
Look Upon Them As Wounded

After vaccinating a young boy with an injection in the arm, a doctor wanted to stick on a bandage. "Please put it on the other arm," the boy pleaded.

"Why do that?" the doctor asked. "This will let everyone know you have been vaccinated and they won't hit your sore arm."

"Please put it on my other arm! Please!" the boy begged. "You don't know the kids at my school."

He couldn't show his weakness. He was afraid to let others know of his vulnerability for fear of being hurt more than he was already.

Adults, too, are pretty good at hiding pain. Not usually physical pain, but the pain of loss or rejection or fear. They like to appear as if they are in control; they can handle whatever life throws at them; they're on top of it. And too often... they end up going it alone. No one understands. No one is there to help.

Susan Muto, in her book BLESSINGS THAT MAKE US BE (Crossroad, 1982), tells a story of a great ruler who needed a second-in-command to help manage his kingdom. When he finally selected the right person, he took him outside onto a balcony of the palace where they could gaze over all the lands under his jurisdiction. His assistant asked the king, "Master, what must I remember most of all if I am to carry out your wishes?"

"My son," the king replied, "there is only one directive to follow -- and that is to look upon the people as wounded."

The wise king knew that everyone is in pain in some way. Wounds may not show, but they are there. And those people we find particularly difficult to relate to may actually be hurting the most.

Discover where people hurt, and you'll finally understand them. Learn where the invisible bandages are and you'll know how to help, heal or reach them. It makes for good leadership. But just as important, it makes for great friendship.
