Jesus, spoke the truth in love. Sometimes, this is not an easy task, but one that develops true, and lasting friendships. Jesus suffered greatly for the truth he spoke, but in the end, was rewarded greatly by the Father. His example is good enough for me. How about you?

I am blessed with a great companion in my wife. I have found this verse to be so true in my life. My wife, helps me be more than i could be, by myself. It had also, been so true and a blessing with some of our closest friends. How about you? Where have you found this truth in your life, from God’s word?

Two are better than one because they have a good return for their labor. For if either of them falls, the one will lift up his companion. But woe to the one who falls when there is not another to lift him up.
Ecclesiastes 4:9‭-‬10 NASB

Worldly wisdom, is not God’s wisdom. It is a gift from God, to all who ask in faith. Don’t be deceived by this worldly wisdom, which is of Satan, who is the father of lies, and not truth.

But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
James 1:5 NASB

God’s Words, will last, for all of Eternity. This world, is passing away. We must put our hope, in something that will last forever. That hope is in God, through Jesus work on the cross, and his resurrection.

1 Peter 1:23-24

23 for you have been a born again not of seed which is perishable but imperishable, that is, through the living and enduring word of God.

24 For, “ ALL FLESH IS LIKE GRASS, AND ALL ITS GLORY LIKE THE FLOWER OF GRASS. THE GRASS WITHERS, AND THE FLOWER FALLS OFF,

25 a BUT THE WORD OF THE LORD ENDURES FOREVER.” And this is the word which was preached to you.

Taken from Isaiah 40: 6-8.

Isaiah elaborated on how transitory humanity is: here today, gone tomorrow. People pass away like plants under the hot breath of the withering E wind. James used this illustration to teach the folly of trusting in material wealth ( Jas 1: 10 , 11 ). Peter used it to illustrate the passing nature of everything related to humanity ( 1Pe 1: 24 , 25 ).

I want you to stop and think about this, with me for a minute. Jesus’s way, is not the world’s way. We are called to Love our enemies, not destroy and overcome, like the worldly view. We overcome with Love and Compassion, just as Jesus did. Think about an enemy, or someone you are at war (there is strife of some sort) with right now. Show compassion and love to them, but don’t do it to get something. Do it because that is how Jesus did it. The rest is not up to us. God Bless you today.

Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

Hey everyone: The verse below is a command, not a suggestion! It’s people, for me that set me off. Good to remember, God gives us much Grace, and he expects us to be like him. I am in no way saying, that we cannot speak the truth in Love. Remember, we were LOST, but now we are FOUND! We were BLIND, but NOW we SEE!

be angry , and yet do not sin ; do not let the sun go down on your anger,
EPHESIANS 4:26 NASB
https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/eph.4.26/34725

Lord, may our hearts humbly bow before you, in persistent prayer. May we be alert, to the needs of others, so we might lift them up. Reveal yourself to us, through answered prayer, even though it may not be, what we wanted the outcome to be. May we always remember, that you care about us and love hearing our petitions.

Devote yourselves to prayer, keeping alert in it with an attitude of thanksgiving;
COLOSSIANS 4:2 NASB

If you want to know the difference, between evil and truth, go to the Bible, which is God’s Words. If you look to this world’s definition, there will be no standard, since man is always redefining what is right and wrong, to suit his own needs. Just look around, and you will see what I mean.

does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;
