Living – day 8

I’m sure we have all felt belittled by another person at sometime in our life time. It’s not a good feeling.  Maybe it’s a fellow Christian, maybe not. Sometimes you feel like youre being condemned by a person.  It happens.  We don’t always pick the best ways to respond to something that people say.  It’s happened to me and I know that I’ve been known to hurt others feelings from time to time.  We all have our own personalities, most of us try to be the best we can.  Some times it just feels good to be alone rather than dealing with these other personalities.

God wants us to be social though, so we have to learn to love each other for who they are and just let his light shine through us.  The thing that I like about God so much is that when someone makes you feel less than you should, you can always rest assured that God loves us unconditionally.  We can rejoice in his love for us which has no limits or conditions.  As we live in close contact with God, the light of his presents filters through you to bless others.  (I got that out of my devotions book by Sarah Young)

I think this next daily verse is good whenever anything is bothering you.

Proverbs 3:5-6   Trust the LORD with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding.  In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your path smooth.
