In a world made up of the prideful, the offended, the entitled, and the angry it’s hard to exhibit love and common sense when all we do is encounter discontented humans. It takes incredible effort not to turn into one of those discontented people when, at the end of each day, we are left exhausted from trying to do, be, say, and live the Jesus way. Yet, no matter how hard, I think His Way is still the best choice in life to follow. None of us really want to be that “other” person, right!
This one is for the weary, the tired, the discouraged, the down trodden. Don’t let your spirit get caught up in someone else’s problems. Pride filled living is truly like a cancer in our Spirit that grows and takes over. Stop and see the truth of it. Reach out to the Holy One who is the Only One who can heal, change hearts, redirect thinking, and show the way out of the dark side towards the bright side of life. What barriers are standing between you and the contented life you are seeking?
“For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride in possessions—is not from the Father but is from the world.” 1 John 2:16
