In a recent Bible study class, one of our lessons was relating to
dealing with "challenging" people - whether in our family, work,
church, neighborhood, etc. Sometimes people may say things that are
untrue, unfair and undeserved! We call that life since
it probably happens to everyone at one time or another! The
recommendation in the Bible study and in today's devotional was to try
to view these times as "opportunities to grow!" Today's reading
says to "grow in grace" - which is giving and receiving undeserved
love. In the Bible study class, the reading suggested that we tell
ourselves that "School is in session," or to be ready to grow and learn
from these unfair, difficult experiences.
What a
blessing to be reminded that what is important in life is not what
others think, but rather what our Lord thinks! I praise Him for the
understanding that His ways are Peace and Love which is poured into our hearts by His Spirit!
Do
you have ways to that you use to deal with those unfair, difficult
times in life? Please share with others as we all need help in this
area.
