I tell ya guys when others have wronged ya..and when others have said and done things to you and your life…they are very hard to get over and very hard to forget..because our actions speak louder than our words..but as well our words can bring death or life..our words are ever so powerful…they cut way down deep into our soul and into our hearts…especially when them words are hurtful…we can try our best to get over it..as so many says for us to do..but saying and doing are two different things..the only way we honestly to goodness get over it…is by letting God take over..and literally take over it all…for in ourselves we can’t get over it so to speak…because flesh will not let us..and I don’t care how long any of us has been a christian ..we still the bible says wrestle daily with that ole flesh..Galatians 5:17..we have to put it under subjection because we are only human..am I not right?..1 Corinthians 9:27…so when dealing with others…we forgive and were suppose to because the bible says it we don’t forgive we won’t be forgiven..Matthew 6:15..and as well it tells us that we are to forgive seventy times seven..Matthew 18:21-22…and that’s a whole lot of forgiveness..so forgiving is one thing…because really when we choose not to forgive and forget…we hold our own selves captive and in a prison…because we won’t be free…do we let others manipulate, harm or hurt us continually? no way..for the word says to stay away from your adversary..1 Peter 5:8..and we do that and we should do that from wisdom..because if you give chance after chance to people and they just continually say things and do things…well then it’s time to separate yourself…you love from a distance…and you pray for your enemy..Matthew 5:44..and you overcome evil with good..Romans 12:21..so is it easy?..not so much..but with God’s help and with God’s strength as the word says we can do all things through Christ which gives us the strength..Philippians 4:13…Amen…so today I ask that each of us examine ourselves…and see how we are treating others..see how were acting towards others..and make sure what were saying out from our own mouths..are encouraging and uplifting..make sure that we are being salt and light in this ole world as we should be..Matthew 5:13-16..make sure were not being negative..but that were being positive…Amen..cause we need to be positive..for when were not we are not only hurting others by what we say..but guys were hurting ourselves as well..because we are hearing what were saying…and the bible says that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God..Romans 10:17..so we have keep a watch over what we say..Amen..for yesterday I had a post that said our attitudes are contagious..for us to make sure that there worth catching…Amen..so let us do unto others as we would have for them to do unto us…and let us pray for good godly people to come into our lives..for sometimes people are only for a season in our lives..so let us recognize them seasonal people..and cling to them life long ones..for we are constantly learning something through everything that we go through and have to face..but it is all for our good..so we are to get the lesson whatever it is and then we are to move on..don’t wallow there..and don’t dwell there in a bunch of past mistakes and hurts…for if we dwell there in the past we live there guys in the past..and never move on into our futures…so let us get to packing up and moving forward into what chapter is coming next in our lives..Amen…don’t stay on the same chapter rereading it over and over again and again…but rather..letting it go and letting God..In Jesus’ name, I do ask and pray, Amen and Amen…Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
