#Heart -to- heart: Be Kind!



Be Kind!

Galatians 6:10Living Bible (TLB)

 10 That’s why whenever we can we should always be kind to everyone, and especially to our Christian brothers.



I am one of those people who carry my heart on my sleeve, if someone hurts or offends me I show it.  When I am hurt I will either get revenge and get them back or avoid them totally.  

This process has been part of my life for a very long time; until my husband said to me just drop it.  Life is difficult enough and stop being so childish.  I was really angry when he said that because I was dealing with the people in my own way.

The funny thing is the Holy Spirit works through many people even your husband.  I was reading this book and the person reminded me to pray about it, give the problem to God and leaves it with God.  I still have some fits, I am still human but I also was reminded that I will give an account one day to God about my bad behavior.  

Let me encourage you pray about the situation and Be Kind to everyone.  It takes practice but in time you will be able to be kind even to those who hurt you.  


Prayer

Lord as I read Your word today, please help me in letting go and trusting You.  Lord, please teach us to be king to everyone, and especially to our Christian brothers.  In the Holy Name of Jesus, Amen.

#never #destroyed

https://goo.gl/xK6bTg 2 Corinthians 4: 8-9AMP “We are pressured in every way [hedged in], but not crushed; perplexed [unsure of finding a way out], but not driven to despair; hunted down and persecuted, but not deserted [to stand alone]; struck down, but never destroyed;” I realized that my emotions are something that can cause me to feel pressure and hedged in. My circumstances seem impossible and I feel that there is no way I am going to make it. Then it’s time to check what is going on in your personal life.  Are you getting enough sleep? Are you eating properly? Do you take a break from time to time? If I don’t get enough sleep it seems despair is knocking at my door, and I feel miserable. I just cannot move forward, I want to curl up and died. Just because I am tired and there seems to be no way out. Emotions have a way of controlling each one of us. I realized that I will never be destroyed because there is a way forward.  God gave me common sense an...

You are a Blessing to me!

Working in a multiracial office is always interesting, and my story today is one about sharing and looking out for each other.    Our cleaning lady doesn’t earn much and I doubt even if they are paying her ‘mini mum wages’.   Nevertheless the people in our office know this and worry about her.    One of the young ladies decided to give her a newspaper with all the latest add in it.   As she paged through the paper she sat next to her and asked her ‘what do you like’.    Looking at the stuff on the page she pick out a couple of things that seemed impossible to own and said to this young girl.   I like this and I would love to have one of these. Without her knowledge the Human Resource division made a collection and they then assigned the task to the young lady to buy the things Judy wanted. We gave her, her gifts today.   I was amazed at her gratefulness, tears of joy running down her face and all she could say was “T...

Help Me Stay True in Giving God His Tithe

Can I be real with you for a minute? Tithing is something I wrestle with. I try my best to be faithful, giving to the best of my ability. But let's be honest, sometimes I look around and see others who seem to be blessed in ways I'm not. They have this financial ease, this "caliber" of blessing, that can feel a world away from my own reality. And in those moments of doubt, a quiet, gentle voice reminds me: I am blessed. God does provide. He has come through for me more times than I can count, often in ways I didn't even see until later. He's always there, picking me up when I've lost it and guiding me when I'm blind to the path. My heart is so grateful for that. But my thinking still needs work. My human nature kicks in and whispers, "I earned this. I worked for this salary." It’s a constant battle to get my heart aligned with the truth. And the truth is found in verses like this: “A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the ...
