Isaiah 58:9
Then you shall call, and the LORD will answer,
you shall cry for help, and he will say: Here I am!
SERIOUS is for honoring God's words about love, goodness, humility, kindness, helping and encouraging...and there are other holy dimensions such as these. This is joyful to do and not work. To the world, serious can involve rules, policies and laws that are intended to damper a person from being happy in spirit.
I don't mean to be a happy and upbeat "anything you want to be" but a child of God that openly shares and cares with the people in their lives and whom they meet. Nobody has a right to force the heirs of the kingdom to "shut up" about our Christian faith.
It isn't right. Never was. Never will be.
Amen.
