“Throw it down!”

“So yesterday evening I had watched a video and this lady begins to tell about another older woman whom she had met..and she says anytime I see an older person..in their 80’s or 90’s and they are doing extra well in their lives..I always ask and I say well I know the Lord has been so good to you..but other than that what is it that you do?..what is your secret?..and without hesitation she says the lady looks at me and says don’t ever get angry..Amen..she says if you do then drop it..Amen..she then says don’t hold a grudge..so not ever worth it..Amen..and she goes to say..trust God with everything..Amen..she says if you see something that isn’t right..or someone does something towards you..then you go to the Lord and you say Jesus you see that..Lord would you please fix that..and you keep marching on..Amen..she then begins to say bitterness will literally kill you..it is a root of anger that keeps growing..and it will destroy your life..everything in your life..Amen!”

“She says look at it this way..it’s like your climbing a mountain..and you have on your backpack ready to go..and every time someone offends you..makes you mad..or upsets you..you reach down pick up a rock and put it in your backpack..Amen..and you just hold on to that stuff..and she says after a while..you’ve got so many rocks in your backpack that the mountain gets harder to climb..Amen..she says just throw the rock down..don’t put it in your backpack..Amen..she says when an offense comes take that rock and look at it and say are you worth putting in my back pack..and she says the answer will be no..Amen..she goes on to saying this lady was the picture of victorious living for Christ..Amen..so again..never get angry..the bible says in our anger sin not..Ephesians 4:26..Amen..and never hold a grudge..Amen..and trust God with everything in your life..Praise the Lord..for life is way too short once again to be mad..angry..and or bitter..Amen..so live happy..live free..and live your life in peace..and tons of JOY..Amen..for it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that 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 ❤
