today was one of those days where God decided to test me.
it was hard...very hard.
oemmgeee
I think I passed though. >.<
Its hard to love when your heart is out of whack or when the hearts of the people your called to love is out of whack. Its even harder when its both. I'm sensing a lot of bitterness. Maybe its just me, sometimes I get overly paranoid. Whatever it is wether it was myself or others or both or the devil or all. I had to fight through it and force myself to not run away but to talk, love and encourage as best as I could.
It definitely God who gave me the strength to do it whatever it was I did.
2 Corithians 1
The God of all comfort and compassion.
I definitely need that to overflow in my life everyday.

Die to self.
it doesn't matter if no ones talking to you DTS

it doesn't matter if people don't want to talk to you DTS

it doesn't matter if the people your talking to don't like you or have something agianst you DTS
love and be real
when they ignore you? DTS
your not doing it for your own glory but for JESUS
when they insult you? DTS
they insulting Jesus not you, know who you are don't let others define you
1 Corithians 16:somewhere
"Do everything in love"
"Overcome evil with good" -somewhere in bible
there's no other way
cuz your fighting agianst the principalites and darkness of the hearts of people.
so you gotta make sure your own heart in is in the light to shine it into the darkness and expose it.
Paul was fighting agianst the Corinthian church talking behind his back in 2 Corithians. His very character was being compromised. What did he do?
He appealed to the truth of God to defend him. He let the light of God in his being and character be the defense agianst the lies of the evil one.
Don't worry about the hearts of others or what they think of your heart.
Just focus on your own heart make sure its in the right place at all times. Pray and let God use that to do the rest.
"If God is for me? Who can be agianst me?"
