The Lion, and the Lamb = Jerry and the Elder
Is that "saying" just an old wife's tale? or do you think it is actually true. Personally I do not believe in that stuff/junk/bs and I think it is just a convenient conversation piece for the 1st and the last day of March.. After all when life gets boring and you are waiting in line at Wal-Mart and it just so happens to be the first day of March..what better way to start a conversation with a stranger than saying..Well, the lamb and the lion could not make up their mind today and they decided to hang out together.. This actually did happen to me today as I was waiting in line at the Wal-Mal on the west end of town..
I just chuckled at the dear old lady speaking, and I responded with: "Maybe we have finally achieved world peace..As the Lion and the Lamb have both decided to hang out together".. She looked at me with a puzzled look on her face and then she said something that made me think about a video I had posted on YouTube back in July of 2006.. She simply said.. What is your definition of Peace?
Here is my definition of Peace.. Watch The Video Below
Now if only all people felt like this..Especially those who have the audacity to leave me nasty messages on my cell phone voice mail..
Here is that voicemail..
Listen to it and if you know who this is..kindly remind this person that Christianity especially Hutterite Christianity is not about judgment but about kindness and acceptance of all man-kind, including those who choose to leave the Hutterite Colony.
For those who do understand German..the message basically tells me to "get back to the colony and to quit screwing around on the computer".. He did use some rather colorful German slang to get his point across..
Point is.. I am who I am and you are who you are Mr. Elder, Judge NOT as that is God's Job.
Peace
Jerry
