The Great Divide needs Love

I've noticed more and more over the past few years the "great divide" that is between Christians.  One of the most notable things to me is there is never an argument over who loved someone more or better.  I think because their is no love in the protest, name calling, hate spewing words that come from either side.

White, black, foreign, immigrant, christian, agnostic, addict, fundamentalist, right, left, gay, straight, single, loud, shy, divorced, married, Baptist, widow, rich, poor, middle class, Methodist, disabled, liberal, artistic, Catholic,moderate, slim, Presbyterian, obese, fit, Episcopalian, healthy, tattooed, sick, Unitarian, farmer, cancer, autistic, military, intelligent, alcoholic, bi-racial, adopted,opinionated, follower, non-denominational, pastor, homeless

These mostly single words are one word descriptions of friends and family of mine. We are different, we are similar, we agree, we disagree...

Love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind and soul. Love your neighbor as yourself - Jesus

This verse speaks beyond the protest, name calling and hate...LOVE
