She Is Love

She is a good girl. She is a kind girl.. She is smart. She is 17. She is ostracized because she doesn't have your religion. Division of church and state. Division of church and school. Division of friend and friend. Her beliefs aren't your beliefs, or are they. She doesn't know. She's only 17. Did Jesus say only love those who agree with your church? Take friend from friend if she isn't washed in your water? Take his body and blood in her body? Give her heart to him. Doesn't she have free will? What would Jesus do? What would he say? She is a good girl. She has high morals. She wants to dedicate her life to helping others. She volunteers with the special needs community. She is not accepted by your family because there are questions she wants to answer. Research to do. Religion, to her, isn't about what her family makes her believe. It's not about hating others. Saying you are a christian, and then lying, cheating, hurting, fearing. She will find her own way. Religion is about love. Life is about love.
