Grace.
44/300
Hi love, how are you? Welcome aboard, I hope you find hope, happiness and peace here.
I would never understand people who are so quick to throw insults around. I understand that someone might now erred you or hurt you so badly but that shouldn’t make insults your default language.
“Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one”
Col 4:6
I can’t even lie, human can be so frustrating but I think that I have gotten better with my words. I literally could be called a fool and I’d repeat it exactly how the person said it then laugh.
Apart from wanting to speak with grace, I think that as believers we should have gotten to a point where we start hating troubles.
Very recently, someone told me that I don’t have sense and I just repeated it and told her that nobody is anybody’s child and to be honest nobody is really anybody’s child. That statement made her calm because the default setting of an average Nigerian is fire for fire and I didn’t give her that.
As children of God, it makes sense for us to portray Christ wherever we go.
Note that the Bible didn’t say we shouldn’t talk? It says our speech should be with grace and seasoned with salt. Speaking up in face of wrongdoing is not entirely bad, it is what we say that matters. You can set people straight but you shouldn’t tear them down, irrespective of how uncouth they are.
A tweet has been circulating for a couple days now and its content has to do with not being the reason someone else has to carry a scar—internally.
I believe that even the best of us can be so vile with our speech because nobody actually has a monopoly on madness but it is God that helps a man to stay grounded.
It’s a new work week and it is prayer that our steps are ordered and we enjoy God more this week.
Until tomorrow, bye.
