... Acceptance ... Acceptance not necessarily means approval. Acceptance means that we accept or recognize what is facing us. Acceptance is surrendering to what is. This means that we surrender to Life. Which means that we surrender to God. God is Life. God is not the Creator of Life.  God IS Life! In our human existence we need to learn to accept what is. We need to learn to accept what is facing us. This means the acceptance of murderers or criminals. We are here to accept the Good and the Bad. We are not here to accept the Good only and reject the Bad. We would be rejecting half of Life. Murderers or criminals are a normal part of Life. They are a living part of Life. They are a living part of the Truth. Life is Truth and Truth is Life. We as Humans are the Living Truth. So was Jesus!  He is not the only one...
