Good morning! How are we faithing? Our eye ball to eye ball exchanges are how others see us. They don't remember our words as much as our actions. We can say nice things but if we handle situations with disrespect or accusatory attitudes we can lose our influence. What love requires in situations and our adherence to that requirement makes a huge difference to whether someone is reached. Love may require that you discipline that child. Love may require that we shut up and listen. Love may require you get after someone for doing things incorrectly and love may require just a hug. The wisdom to know what love requires is built on a foundation of the Word of God. Jesus acted in all cases in love and those examples are what we as disciples of Jesus must follow.
Gal 5:13-16
For ye, brethren, were called for freedom; only use not your freedom for an occasion to the flesh, but through love be servants one to another. For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another. But I say, walk by the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
Mat 7:12
All things therefore whatsoever ye would that men should do unto you, even so do ye also unto them: for this is the law and the prophets.
remember Josh D's Mom...
Heavenly Father,
We worship and adore you. Lord, help us be mindful of love and what it requires. Grant us wisdom in this area. Help us not hinder or hurt from failure to love. Lord we lift Josh's Mom up to you. Heal her body. Let her see you at work in her. Lord, bless our week with victories in our soul, in Jesus name, amen
