Compare Yourself

We are always told that we should never compare ourselves to others; the only person we should compare ourselves to is the person we were yesterday. I do believe in the latter statement. However, there is someone we should constantly be comparing ourselves to. We are not comparing who is better looking or who is stronger. We are comparing our actions, words, and way of life. There is only one we…

Today, many people help others, they donate to the victims of typhoons, earthquakes and other crisis, but then, later post them to social media to display their good works. So now, we can't really tell who is truly helping and who is just doing it for the sake of public praise, fame, or appreciation. But God knows. He knows us better than we know ourselves. He sees the inner thoughts of our hearts and minds. He knows our motives. As Christians, we are called to do differently. We are called to help those in need without broadcasting our good deeds. We are called to give not just because it is the right thing to do but because we know that whatever is ours is the LORD's, and we–His stewards–should be a channel of blessing, knowing that our God will supply our need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Phil. 4:19) So today, I encourage my brothers and sisters in Christ to help others in need without expecting something in return. Let's do this because we are called to be like Christ. Let's do this because this is our new nature. Let's do this for the GLORY of God. CHALLENGE: Give to someone without letting the person know that it's from you. Don't tell anyone but the Lord. Leave a message saying... "God Loves You and knows your needs." Make sure to ask the Holy Spirit for guidance as you do this. Behold, the Lord is going to use you today to bless someone.

"If I speak with human eloquence and angelic ecstasy but don’t love, I’m nothing but the creaking of a rusty gate. If I speak God’s Word with power, revealing all his mysteries and making everything plain as day, and if I have faith that says to a mountain, “Jump,” and it jumps, but I don’t love, I’m nothing. If I give everything I own to the poor and even go to the stake to be burned as a martyr, but I don’t love, I’ve gotten nowhere. So, no matter what I say, what I believe, and what I do, I’m bankrupt without love. Love never gives up. Love cares more for others than for self. Love doesn’t want what it doesn’t have. Love doesn’t strut, Doesn’t have a swelled head, Doesn’t force itself on others, Isn’t always “me first,” Doesn’t fly off the handle, Doesn’t keep score of the sins of others, Doesn’t revel when others grovel, Takes pleasure in the flowering of truth, Puts up with anything, Trusts God always, Always looks for the best, Never looks back, But keeps going to the end. 1 Cor 13:1-7 MSG #BelikeChrist https://www.instagram.com/p/CgbyhUJOBlQs1r89Ei3__L9SRGgknkloEwwes80/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

"The heart of real forgiveness is relinquishing your right to get even. The Bible says in Romans 12:19, “Never avenge yourselves. Leave that to God, for he has said that he will repay those who deserve it” (TLB). You say, “If I give up my right to get even with somebody who’s hurt me, then that’s unfair.” You’re right! It is unfair. But whoever said forgiveness is fair? Was it fair for Jesus Christ to forgive everything you’ve ever done wrong and let you go free? No. The truth is that life is not fair. And forgiveness is not fair. It’s called grace, and God has shown it to you. One day, God is going to have the last word. He’s going to settle the score. He’s going to right the wrong. Leave the justice part to God. You just concern yourself with forgiving so there can be peace in your heart and you can get on with your life. If you don’t do this, you will fall into the trap of bitterness. Resentment and bitterness are worthless emotions. In fact, doctors tell us they are the unhealthiest emotions. They will eat you alive like cancer. All your resentment and bitterness toward people who have hurt you in the past isn’t going to change the past, and it certainly won’t change the future. All it can do is mess up today. When you hold on to resentment, you allow people from your past to continue to hurt you today. And that’s not smart! The people in your past are past. They cannot continue to hurt you unless you choose to hold on to the hurt. Instead, let go of your need to get even or make things fair. Leave it up to God. The Bible says, “Be careful that none of you fails to respond to the grace which God gives, for if he does there can very easily spring up in him a bitter spirit which is not only bad in itself but can also poison the lives of many others” (Hebrews 12:15 Phillips)" - Rick Warren #BelikeChrist https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf9e9SDOs26bO6atwijv1yiWuriMZl_cAbvs1s0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The deeds you do may be the only sermon some people will ever hear today. #lightoftheworld Jesus said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."- John 8:12 #belikejesus We aren't called to shine our own light; we are called to reflect His. #saltandlight For once you were full of darkness, but now you have light from the Lord. So live as people of light! For this light within you produces only what is good and right and true.- Ephesians 5:8-9 #belikechrist Tune into this video I did on YouTube that relates to this topic, "Influence | Christians Should Be The Greatest Attractions".
