It’s Not
Okay

It’s not okay to hate
One another
Or each other
Because of skin
Or creed
It’s not okay to teach hate
Or spew hate
Or belittle others
Because they’re different from you
Or me
Or we
It’s not okay to be silent
And look away
Pretend not to see
Because it’s not me
Or mine
And act like it can’t be
Just because
It isn’t pretty
We are called to love
As God has loved us
Because He has loved us
It’s how we show the world
The love He has for us
ALL
We are all made in the image of God
Who loves us
And died for us
And commands us
To love
Our neighbor
As ourselves
Anything less is not okay
