Man Will Know War No More

We are an ignorant, foolish species. Unaware of our potential and unwilling to love each other unconditionally. We are infants in the grand scheme of creation. We are children among men and women from other planets and galaxies and dimensions. But for all of our faults and ignorance. We have a beauty that cannot be denied. A mother nursing her child. A father working 3 jobs to support his family. Activists foregoing the easy life to fight for the oppressed. Rich men and women with generous hearts, funding cures for Cancer. We are an ignorant and foolish species. But no angel, no alien, no higher power can deny our beauty. We are beautiful. And that is why Jesus suffered more pain and anguish than any being in the creation to redeem us. Because he designed us in the imagination of the mother. He knew our potential. He knew that beneath our foolish and childish vanity, we were an explosion of life about to happen. He knew of the divinity that he placed in us. He knew of the Holy Spirit that would increase that divinity. He knew of our hidden genius to one day teach angels. And he said, "Father, they are foolish yes, but I will sacrifice my omniscience to become infantile like them. I will suffer the humiliation of their powerlessness and I will battle the enemy that deceives them with my bare human hands and I will win. We are an ignorant, foolish species, but our beauty is unprecedented and we are worth a bright future. Jesus certainly thought so. And so even as people exploit people and the strong oppress the weak. And so even as women scar their children and men abandon their responsibilities. And so even as greedy images deceive us all out of optimism and into accusation and judgment. We have a savior who will not quit on us. He will wait and he will bless and he will guide until we see that love is the only thing worth fighting for. And we will rise along with the planet that we inhabit. And man will no war no more.
