To be ahead of the race

The other day, I asked my priest how does on separate their Christian self from the human side. Probably, they cannot understand my question. However, the answers I got from him and another learned person are really what I was looking for.

My priest told me that we mustn’t be hypocrites and hide behind a facade. The other learned man told me we must speak the truth. I explained to them that it is not easy trying to be all churchy and stuffs, Miss Manners and all when we have to push our opinions to the masses who don’t hear that well. It is not they are deaf but I need to speak the language they know. And sometimes, these two don’t mix.

After that night of questions and answers, I seem to have found more courage to take on some issues. I feel it is my Christian right. If I have the skills to be ahead of the race, and lots of people are going to find my views before others, why not make the most of it? After all, God has bestowed this gift to me and it is only right I use it in the best way to keep goodwill, peace and harmony.
