1 John 2:9 Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates his brother is still in the darkness.

I have been compiling my thoughts, writing and rewriting this over the last few days. I have been struggling with what to say. Normally, I am terrified of hurting or offending someone; anyone. I usually stay silent on social media on difficult issues to keep from hurting anyone but I now realize that silence does far more damage than speaking out. I can’t be silent anymore. My heart aches. My heart aches for my dear friends and all members of the black community who experience this fear every day of their lives.
I am not as educated as I should be and that is on me. I want to do better and I want to be better.
I feel helpless and that nothing I can do is enough, but I know that’s not true. Right now I have a voice. I recognize I have been privileged with a life without the fear of being judged or persecuted due to my race and I have the ability use that to help lift and defend. “I understand that I will never understand, but I will stand with you.”
@ohhappydani wrote “In so many areas of life, we have present privileges that are inherent or earned. Couldn’t it be said that we’ve also been given a present duty to use those privileges to serve our neighbors? The marginalized and oppressed? The overlooked and forgotten? How do we fulfill this call?
We amplify the voices of those who go unheard. We stand in the gap for the tired and worn. We draw a line in the sand and say “from here on, no more.” And we do it for as long as our lives last.”
I am realizing that our voices not only impact those we are fighting against, but matter so much to those we are fighting for.
I have signed petitions, I have donated, but most importantly I will no longer just be a silent ally; I will speak up.
“Let our hearts break for what breaks His”(@ohhappydani)
