“LIVE PEACEABLY WITH ALL BRETHREN!”

Saints of God Most High, “hear God’s word for you today:”

“Bless those who persecute you — bless them, don’t curse them! Rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep. Be sensitive to each other’s needs — don’t think yourselves better than others, but make humble people your friends. Don’t be conceited………….” (Romans 12:14-18)

Speak blessing, not cursing, over those who reject and persecute you. Celebrate with those who celebrate and weep with those who grieve.

Live happily together in a spirit of harmony, and be as mindful of another’s worth as you are your own. Don’t live with a lofty mindset, thinking you are too important to serve others, but be willing to do menial tasks and identify with those who are humble minded. Don’t be smug or even think for a moment that you know it all.

Never hold a grudge or try to get even, but plan your life around the noblest way to benefit others. If possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.

FOOD FOR THOUGHTS

Forget each kindness that you do as soon as you have done it.
Do not dwell on the praise that falls on you because of your kindness.

Forget the slander that you hear because of your kind gesture.
Remember your promises and fulfil them.

Remember all those who helped you and be a grateful debtor.
Forget each worry and distress, be hopeful and forgiving.

Always remember good deeds and also remember that truths always prevail.
Remember that heaven is above and hell is below, and you will know that still there are many who love you.

Kindness releases moral and spiritual instruction and encouragement.
God showed kindness to Ruth (Ruth 1:8).
Julius showed kindness to Paul (Acts 27:3).

The Bible instructs us to show kindness (Rom 12:10). Therefore, be kind to all in Jesus’ mighty name, Amen!

You are indeed a vessel of kindness and honour in Jesus’ mighty name, Amen!

Everybody shout, “THANK YOU, JESUS!”

Shalom and good morning.
