How I long for unity and peace. But I understand I will never have it on this earth. I will never have peace and unity with others until I have been made perfect. But I can get closer and closer each day by following these five steps. I think my biggest problem is demonstrating consideration. Even when I really appreciate someone I don't let them know. So many people have done wonderful things for me and I don't even show them a little consideration for how they might feel. I feel terrible.
I just ask that God will help me and soften my heart and make me more caring.
