When life is rough......

Life may beat us up but won't beat us! 2 Corinthians 4:16. This is the scripture that my pastor kept saying yesterday during service. It is so true. I had a situation that happened yesterday and I didn't really like and I thought I was done wrong in. But, Lord Thank You so much for answering my prayer that involved this person. I was listening to Rick Warren and it was something I needed to hear. I had listened to it before but honestly, it did not effect me like it today. He was talking about if you let someone who has done you wrong make you feel bitter or mad you are the only one that is hurting from it. The person that did you wrong probably already forgot about it. This is so true because if they really cared then they wouldn't of done you wrong to start with. Sometimes this is a hard pill to swallow. That someone that calls you a friend honestly, never was. You could have gotten along with each other, had fun together but if you never honest in the beginning it can never be a right relationship. That is why repentance is so important to have a right relationship with God. You have to always be honest, share your feelings and open your heart to him. He already knows anyways. So, why not. He knew about it before you knew what you were going to do. When God puts people in your life, they are there for a reason. Treat them just as you would want to be treated. The closer you get to God the more people he going to put in your life that love God so you can encourage each other and complete the mission. You do know that everyone is in your life for just a season. So, just make it a great season.
