A
reminder for today
I
will tell of the LORD's unfailing love. I will praise the LORD for all he has
done. I will rejoice in his great goodness to Israel, which he has granted
according to his mercy and love. (Isaiah 63:7)
What makes us argue and fight? Is it our stubbornness to
not see someone else’s way or is it our selfishness to seek only our own
need and what we require? Do we look at people and circumstances through the
eyes of Jesus or do we only know Him when we need Him? Do we stand and praise
Him in the church and then forget Him when we do not get our way and or when we
are upset?
I am very sensitive to the way people talk to me and I must
admit a slight change in your voice triggers my misconception and normally ends
in an argument. It is something I need to work on, but I guess in every person
there are faults and we all can’t be perfect all the time. The only solution is
to meet each other half way. if we do not agree we must always seek a middle
way that allows both parties to get a portion of what they need. Sometimes we
must give in a little more, but this does not mean we will lose that part. Somewhere
in the future that little you gave more will be returned to you in tenfold.
God loves us and when we seek the understanding ear and
agreeing heart of a friend, we seek an ally in our pain. Does God not love us
more and does He not have more grace than our best friend? Do not turn away
from God, my friend, but run towards Him. When we find ourselves in an heated
argument, we should stop for a moment and ask God what He would want us to do
and how would He want us to react. Just remember that Jesus gave His life for
you and that is the extent of His love. Should we not do the same?
I
will tell of the LORD's unfailing love. I will praise the LORD for all he has
done.
Have and awesome day dear friend of Jesus
Cheers
