Our Side of the Street

Description

Today, we explore the complexities of human nature, including the subtle ways we can be drawn toward negativity. Swedenborg speaks of the “pleasures of insanity”, warning us about harmful tendencies like gossip, which can erode relationships and distance us from love and truth. Instead, we are called to practice kindness, seeing our neighbors with compassion and understanding. When we recognize others’ struggles and choose empathy over judgment, we align ourselves with God’s divine wisdom. Let us reflect on this together, seeking to uplift rather than tear down, and walk forward in love. Amen.
