What attracts?

What is it that truly attracts?

Is it:

“Innovation”?   “Fresh ideas”?   “Progressive thinking”?   “Something new”?

I propose it’s none of the above.

I say it’s Love.

But I also say that Love made manifest looks a lot like this:

Wisdom. Sincerity. Peace.

Integrity. Honesty. Candor.

Decisiveness. Kindness. Strength.

Courage. Perseverance. Sacrifice.

None of which are old or new.

None of which are innovative or progressive.

None of which are tied to one generation or another.

We are in trouble. Our nation. Our world. Our time. And men are to blame. For we are weak and timid leaders.

We are cut off from mankind’s head—from Christ—Who is living, breathing Wisdom, Sincerity, Peace, Integrity, Honesty, Candor, Decisiveness, Kindness, Strength, Courage, Perseverance, Sacrifice.

Christ is true manhood made flesh.

We simply need more men. True men. Who act like men.

May we discover our true voice.
