Help Others, Not Hurt Them

If I can’t do anything to enhance you, (uplift you or make you better) I’m not going to do anything for you. That’s the way everyone ought to live (Philippians 2:4; 1 Corinthians 10:24, 13:5). Too many people are hurting and destroying others, and these victims brought to sorrow, inconvenience and hardship didn’t deserve it (Romans 12:17). Now I’m not referring to offenders who need to be put in their place, but to innocent people who become the victims of oppressors who have their own selfish and violent agenda (Psalms 37:14,32,35).

Make it the focus of your life to value others as you wish them to value you. And if you have issues with someone, try to sit down and talk it over in a reasonable way. If that cannot be done, forget it and walk away because that is the way it has to be at times. Tomorrow will be another day (and if the Lord wills) plan to do something to make things better for others.

It is a lot easier then you think, so take up the challenge and cause it to happen, and you will go to bed feeling good.

Hope to hear from you or see you at the services.
