Read your Bible every day if you can.
Become a disciple and disciple maker. Preach Jesus.
Open doors for people.
Let people in front of you in line.
Help the poor and sick out of their suffering.
Always be out to do good and avoid sin.
Be nice to everyone, you don’t know how much people have encountered jerks.
We all remember bullies. Some people have them at work or in family. Some people have economic or health hardships.
If there is a certain percentage of jerks in the population, being jerks to people randomly, there is a chance someone is encountering jerks way more frequently than the norm. This is just statistical reality.
So be nice to everyone. You don’t know how bad people got it. Let them know Jesus cares for them, and God loves them. We too must show love to others. Some people don’t get a lot of love…
Proverbs 12:18 Thoughtless words can wound as deeply as any sword, but wisely spoken words can heal.
Proverbs 12:18 Thoughtless words can wound as deeply as any sword, but wisely spoken words can heal.
Ever hear the saying, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me?” This is patently false. I’d rather someone come punch me than relentlessly bully me for years at school. It seems like words can hurt more than weapons. Kind words however, they can heal. They can heal your mental. And since God exists, words have more power than most know. You can do anything through prayer. You can literally heal someone of any ailment if God wills it. So be encouraging all, and praying for lots of healings in hospitals, people who can’t get to hospitals, and people at home recovering from the hospital.
Proverbs 16:24 Kind words are like honey—sweet to the taste and good for your health.
