Warrior,
Good morning, I hope you had a GREAT week. Today's message "Suffering for Doing Good" One can find it difficult and challenging when persecuted for doing good. Have you ever had good intentions, but the outcome ended badly, and you wanted to retaliate? We must be careful that we don't allow these experiences to bitter us and harden our hearts. For the Bible speaks on this. For we are called to be sympathetic, to love one another and be compassionate and humble. And we are instructed not to repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing, because to this we are called so that we may inherit a blessing. For whoever would love life and see good days must keep their tongue from evil and their lips from deceitful speech. They must turn from evil and do good, they must seek peace and pursue it. For the eyes of YHWH are on the righteous and His ears are attentive to their prayer, but the face of YHWH is against those who do evil. I pray that these words will encourage you to continue doing what is good and right regardless of how it is excepted. You think about that. Have a GREAT day and may you bless and encourage many along the way. And be sure to make time over the weekend for some R&R “Rest & Reflection”.
