Hello friends!
Have you ever felt bitter towards any person or any group of people?
If you have never ever had such feelings then either you have perfectly accepted and are walking in Christ's teachings or you are a totally no feelings person who doesn't care about anything!!
But, I like to believe that all of us do get affected and tend to have strong feelings towards one person or a certain set of people.
And due to which we tend to grow bitter, have a grudge against them and this in turn always keeps us focussed on them, rather than being open to many other things or many other people in our lives.
And thats where we miss this one very specific and very strong instruction from Christ i.e. love each other and most importantly love your enemies, he literally doesn't mean to still have a close relationship with them or become friends with them, and do good to them who has done bad or always planning and plotting against you.
As it is written in the WORD of GOD those who dig pits for others shall themselves fall into the same pit.
What HE implies is forgive them and literally have a neutral stance towards them and if at all you come to know that you actually can help them just do that and have no other feelings or expectations from them or from anyone whom you have helped. And while doing so if they have a change of mind & heart and ask for forgiveness do forgive them, i believe you would have already forgiven them and therefore you are helping them since you came to know that they need help!!
All these I had known and still I faltered at this and lately I have realized it and I am sure GOD will help me to mend my ways!!
That one bitter thought had led to another thought and without me realizing it was a chain of thoughts a strong hold created by myself which prevented me from reflecting Christ in some specific areas.
If you are having such a train of thoughts towards anyone trust me it is of no use, in return it will make you bitter from insideout and you will not cherish the life that you have.
But, what GOD has asked us to? That is to cheris the life always!! I know it is difficult to cherish always but GOD is with us to help us!!
Lets submit ourselves to CHRIST!
