I have had this blog for quite some time now and I know I haven't been very consistent in posting, and that is mostly due to school, so blame the University! I know in my very first post to the blog I established my reasonings for creating it and what I hope to accomplish by having it, but I think it needs a little clarification and possibly a little revision.
The very essence of this blog is about love and I intend to keep it that way, but my original intentions were to talk about the love in us that will change the world around us, but I forgot about two big details.
The first of these is that many if not all of us are ready to take up arm and engage in this "Revolution." We are broken and discouraged inside and may feel that we are not capable of bringing love to others because it may not even be inside ourselves. If you feel this way, be not discouraged, God is with you and wants to heal your brokenness. Because of this first realization, this blog will now be devoted to what needs to change in our own lives in order to have God and His love at the center.
The second realization that I have had is that I don't believe love can be fully understood with out the other two Theological Virtues - faith and hope. As Paul says in 1 Corinthians 13:13: "So faith, hope, and love remain, these three; but the greatest of these is love." In the future post I am also going to try to include my thoughts on faith and hope and my goal is to emphasize how improving and growing in these two virtues will help to grow more in love.
The Mission of A Call for a Revolution is to help Christ's faithful realize who they are and how to continue to grow in faith, hope, and most of all love. But also to help Christ's faithful to live out their calling to love and bring God's Good News to the people who are spiritually suffering, sick, and dead.
I feel that with my establishment of a Mission I also need a Disclaimer.
