Alan Hirsch shares during #thenines

- Join the Insurgency of Love
my creed ::
- imagine if suddenly...
  rather than seeking revenge, you sought reconciliation
  rather than repaying violence with violence, you sought creative transforming nonviolent alternatives
  rather than focusing on external conformity to moral codes, you were internally transformed by love
  rather than loving insiders and hating outsiders, you welcomed outsiders into a new “us” and “we”
  rather than anxiety about money or security or pleasure, you trusted ourselves to the care of God
  rather than living for wealth, you lived for God who loves all people, including our enemies
  rather than hating our enemies and competitors, you loved them and did unto them not as they have done unto you – or before they do unto you – but as you wish they would do for you
