Love endures, forgives..


And what does it say about responding to peoples comments on your blog?
Sorry, maybe I'm wrong but I noticed
some people dont respond to mine and others comments on their blog.
One person in particular has done this consistently with my comments for a couple of yrs now.
Someone who acts a bit ditzy at times, does the dumb blonde act..
Sorry no offence intended, but that is how it comes across and having said that, am I being judgemental?
NO .. I'm just being honest..
I dont very often go to their blog because of this and I forgot that they dont respond to my comments, I dont honestly know why this one person does this, but who knows, hey?
I just keep walking and dont worry about it!
You see, for a lot of my life I used to think if I was rejected, there must be something wrong with me!
I consistently felt bad about myself until I realised I was feeling bad about God's own creation and actually throwing it back at His face, who am I to question Him..
Remember the scripture about the clay pot questioning the potter?
It took a long time to see that it actually means there is something wrong with the rejector, their reasons can be anything from listening to gossip, envy, jealousy, resentment or maybe just dislike, who knows..
BUT it is all between them and God!
ESPECIALLY if I have never done or said anything to deliberately hurt or offend these people, which I wouldnt do, because it's not how I think!
God made me just the way He wanted to, I am His beloved, the apple of His eye, made for His good purpose, amen!
I realised if there are people who have a problem with that, who and how I am, take it up with my Creator, Father God!!
You see if we TALK about love but dont WALK in love the sound of our voices are just like clashing cymbals to God!
We are counted as hypocrites, white washed tombs full of dead mens bones..
Do you get it?
The dead mens bones are OUR bones, that means WE are dead!
That means we DONT have the Holy Spirit, because the Holy Spirit gives LIFE, amen!
He is strength to our bones, health to our flesh and LIFE to our mortal bodies, amen!

And doesnt forgiveness go hand in hand with love?

God bless you all as you remember why we do the Christmas thing..
To remember His great love, mercy and forgiveness which He proved by sending His one and only into the world to die for us an agonizing death..
The one who came humbly in the shape of a helpless, dependant, newborn baby..
He could have come any way He pleased, trumpets blaring, but He did this to show He was willing to walk and live as we do, to show us nothing is impossible to God.. amen

So to all those who TALK about love, but dont respond to those around you with at least good manners.. God bless you and have a wonderful Christmas .. SINCERELY I have joy in my heart, a smile on my face and it's ALL good, amen..

Sometimes it's like walking on eggshells, people can be offended even when no offense was intended. That's where being online is a let down, we cant see body language or expressions.
Something intended as funny can be taken so wrongly, BUT it still comes down to the others perspective and where they're at at that particular moment. I have just posted on our wonderful family day yesterday, but it could be taken so many ways by some, that isnt meant at all as anything other than a happy report of something in our lives!
It was a good day it was good driving the long drive home and reflecting on it all. God bless you Lily and have a wonderful Christmas!

You are as a true christian should be, like a breath of fresh air and you are certainly not ditzy or feel the need to put on a dumb blonde act, why do people do that?
They are putting themselves down, who knows honestly the reasons, who knows honestly what another has been thru to lead them to this, that's where compassion comes into it, but compassion can sometimes lead us to being burned.. as you said.. it is good not to stay in abusive unhealthy relationships, amen, but it is good to know the difference, we are to ask God for wisdom, amen..

Good stuff Ms chocnroses and Ms Lily....The attacks on me pertains to my profession 'lawyers and other professionals don't come to Big Church'. Is that an insult or what??? There assuredly are intelligent and educated people here....It appears that Ms Lily is quite educated from what I've read in her blogs...Ms chocnroses,,, you are a smart woman too....I don't know the reasons for the lies and attacks and quite frankly don't care...The accusers are misinformed....Wisdom -yes!
