Can we agree,
to disagree . . .
can we concur
our differences
to defer.
For we’ll never see,
eye to eye . . .
for my love
for Jesus
I’ll not deny.
Can we agree,
not to offend . . .
can we decide
our rifts
to suspend.
For we’ll never see,
things the same . . .
for my faith
is in Jesus
His peace my aim.
Can we agree,
to disagree . . .
so we can
from bitterness
be set free!
~~~~~~~~
Let all bitterness,
and wrath, and anger,
and clamour, and evil
speaking, be put away
from you, with all malice:

Also, for some things there is more than one right answer. 🙂
One person esteems one day above another; another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully convinced in his own mind. He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he who does not eat, to the Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks.
Romans 14:5-6 New King James Version (NKJV)

Reblogged this on Faithful Steward Ministries and FSM Women's Outreach and commented:
There was a time when disagreeing parties (political, religious, etc.) could hold discussions, debates and such with civility and moral decorum. I fear that day is forever gone.

Yes, there is just too much nowadays to contend with . . . agreeing to disagree with humility and respect no matter what are differences are seems to be the call for us today!
