You know life can be very harsh and biased. To be a blessing to someone can be problematic or involve us going out of our way to help. When I was working for a shipyard, a senior welder advised me that “life’s more laid-back when we just say no.” This is true. Saying no to others saves a lot of time and energy because every analysis just comes to a rapid end. In my life, I’ve never seen someone so quick to make excuses instead of finding ways to be helping others as he did. This reminded me of the expression about, “getting a dose of your own medicine.”
One time I witnessed the same coworker being denied a favor by everyone. His request was simple: change days because of an imperative appointment. I couldn’t help him either because we worked in two different fields. It was tough to watch and a harsh lesson for him to learn.
Beloved, Jesus commanded us to love our neighbor as we love ourselves and the parable of the Good Samaritan is the perfect example. (*1.)
Beloved, EVERYONE IS A NEIGHBOR. 😀
Are you willing and ready to love everyone?
Shalom
Beloved, life is very short. It comes and goes like an unannounced gust of wind. None of us know the hour or day when that gust of wind will be permitted to enter our room and blow out our earthly light. So today, reach out and touch someone and tell them you love them, BECAUSE TELLING THEM LATER JUST MIGHT BE TOO LATE.
I LOVE YOU ALL!!! Have a Wonderful Wednesday. 😀
