get the one liners...

Just when I thought I couldn't stand to hear one more political comment here comes Paul.

1Cor 3:1-9
Brothers and sisters,
I could not talk to you as spiritual people,
but as fleshly people, as infants in Christ.
I fed you milk, not solid food,
because you were unable to take it.
Indeed, you are still not able, even now,
for you are still of the flesh.
While there is jealousy and rivalry among you,
are you not of the flesh, and walking
according to the manner of man?
Whenever someone says, "I belong to Paul," and another,
"I belong to Apollos," are you not merely men?

What is Apollos, after all, and what is Paul?
Ministers through whom you became believers,
just as the Lord assigned each one.
I planted, Apollos watered, but God caused the growth.
Therefore, neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything,
but only God, who causes the growth.
He who plants and he who waters are one,
and each will receive wages in proportion to his labor.
For we are God's co-workers;
you are God's field, God's building.

Jealousy and rivalry and ugliness it seems like our country is doomed.
There are so many lies and deceit. There is no right way to turn ones loyalty.

Here Paul tells me to get over myself because it is all about the Lord God.

It is God who will cause the growth,

we are only God's coworkers!   Most of the time he doesn't need us anyway.

I can't believe how quickly I get swept onto a bandwagon,
I know how hard I try to stay off.

Where are the pithy sayings for these Godly beliefs?
Why no one liners?
no 1% or
the other 98% 
what does it all mean anyway?
Can I possibly make any difference!
Please Lord, give me the wisdom and patience to look for your love, 
and bless me if you desire to serve as a citizen of your kingdom and as an American.
I ask for wisdom to look for your ways when I know the answer is between the lines
in the fraction of a percent, in the hearts and service to
 those forgotten.

Today I read this prayer from Father Mychal Judge a priest and firefighter who died in 9/11

“Lord, take me where you want me to go; 

let me meet who you want me to meet; 

tell me what you want me to say; 

and keep me out of your way.”
