Good
Morning!
One
way to keep our relationships "simple", which will eliminate
"stress, strife and struggle", is to follow the instructions
in this song that I am going to share with you today.....keep in mind,
that this song is talking only about the relationships that you have with
other "Christians". We are commanded to walk in
"love" with all of our brothers and sisters in the family of God.
The Bible tells us that this is how all of the "unbelievers" will
know that we are from God (John 13:34)>>>>>>>>>
I may not always "agree" with you....
with what you say, or what you do,
but, there is one thing I can "choose" to do.....
I can choose to see "Jesus in you"!
It is not "love", just because we agree.....
"love" is the way that I see you and you see me!
"Love' is not based on the way that we "feel".....
LOVE is a "decision of our will"!
So, when I look at you, I "will" see Jesus...
because I know He lives in you;
when I look at you, I "will" see Jesus.....
because, I know, that Jesus lives in you! **
**taken from "Luanne's Songs"
So, when you don't agree with what someone says or
does, don't "focus" on that! Just keep your mouth
"shut".. and your heart "open". Make a decision to
walk in "love", even if you have to do it "silently"!
Remember, that God will not hold you accountable for what others say and do,
only how you "responded" to it. Whenever you decide not
to "react", but to "respond" in love, then you are
the one that has the "Victory".................LOVE NEVER FAILS!
Have
a Blessed Day!! (keep it
"simple")
In His Love, Luanne
