Seeing 'Jesus' from Below #21

[October 1998 journal entry]
Relate the “We’ve Got Lots in Common” lyrics in Charlotte’s Web to the call to “love your enemies” (e.g., Matt. 5:38-48) – i.e., focus on the resolve that we all have “lot’s in common”. Our youngest daughter Morgan -- nine years old – watches repeatedly the film of E. B. White’s children’s classic. This song from the film about respect and integration illustrates the numerous conversations in our family sparked by Charlotte’s Web.
