Quotes & Poetry

Tis the beginning of a New Year 2016 approaching. During the month of January, my Quotes & Poetry postings will be on PEACE.  I have to BELIEVE in Jesus’ words. We are a people in desperate need of some peace in our heart and soul. He said:

Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth , give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled , neither let it be afraid.”    (John 14:27)                           

 

“Let the first act of every morning be to make the following resolve for the day:
– I shall not fear anyone on Earth.
– I shall fear only God.
– I shall not bear ill will toward anyone.
– I shall not submit to injustice from anyone.
– I shall conquer untruth by truth. And in resisting untruth, I shall put up with all suffering.” ~ Mahatma Gandhi

  2. Have you ever felt that you were related to your enemies? Is staying away from them a sin even if you don’t hate them and still have love for them and still would be there if they needed help ?

    • Hello Tee,
      We are all related to our enemies. As they say blood is thicker than water. The story of Joseph comes to mind in the bible. Personally I don’t believe staying away from them is a sin, if you want to keep a Christ-like behavior towards them and their behavior is full of evilness. At that point you’ll just have to keep praying for the Lord to change their heart…never give the devil within them room to keep hurting you. Here are some scriptures to read:
      Deuteronomy 31:6
      Micah 7:5-6
      Luke 10:19
      Exodus 23:5
      Romans 12:20-21
      Luke 6:27-28
      Lord bless you
