“Sometimes we just have to hope that how others act and react is a true reflection of what comes out of their mouth”
I hate it when someone I know from one side of their face is sharing “lessons” of faith and interpreting what the Lord means and how we need tolerance and love for one another and that we need to remember people are not perfect and need our compassion. And from the other side of the same face comes profanity, belligerence, disrespect and pent up anger. Either practice what you preach with as few exceptions as possible or don’t share faithful messages as if you follow them. It’s fake and those that know you will see right through it as will those whom you are trying to impress. Eventually the truth of you rises to the surface and it might just cost you big. If it’s a change you are trying to make, MAKE IT but be thorough in your consistent and steadfast practice of it. Live it, breathe it and speak it every day.
Lead by example and govern your world and actions as though today were your last. Give love and respect and faith in all you do and bow your head and pray for help when you are struggling. God didn’t intend for us to say just what makes us LOOK good to others, that’s selfish and sinful. He intended for us to live up to his word in all that we do and say and take him along every minute on that journey.
