Don't be fooled by the imitations, the look alike, or the costumes. There are people who look like they could be your true friend and sound like they could be your true friend but their hearts are far from it. There are those who seek out ways to get close to you only to destroy you. I do understand you may be thinking...why? Well, let's put it this way, everyone can't take in YOU. Just you being you, is difficult for some people, so they will laugh in your face and talk about you the moment you walk out the room. Let's keep in mind that the real reason may cause others to self-evaluate themselves...and people are not into the holding themselves accountable buisness, they rather just hate on you and point the finger at everyone but themselves. So, the idea is not to get even or tell them a piece of your mind, the idea is to pray for those who persecute you. Bless those who curse you, and wish nothing but the best things for them. Now, lets be realistic doing this takes discipline. How do you respond without feeling like your being emotionally and socially bullied or taken advantage of? After all your the one being offended. Display only acts of love. This, will test your level of love as well. We should not be walking around life holding grudges and waiting for opportunities to get people back. The only and one true response is love. Indulging yourself in forgiving them, for they may not know better. This will develop the both of you to the proper understanding and application of "love". We must walk throughout life commanding ourselves to excises love. We must be rooted in the emotion and obedience of love. How do we do this? We respond by not attacking them in a confrontational or misinterpreted way. Never be vengeful and never desire an appetite for others to fall or fail to prove your point. To grow in leaps and bounds is to understand that we are to love, to do the highest good toward our enemies in spite of our feelings. Just think of this way the more you love the more your humble and a humble person walks in grace. Grace that gives you peace in the mist of every situation. Grace that exalts you before your enemies. Grace that gives you justice. Grace that offers wisdom. What will you gain....everything!
P.S. I LOVE LOVE
