Doing That Which Uplifts and Encourages Others

Doing That Which Uplifts Others… Seldom do I see others “building up.” But rather “tearing down.” So much hurt and pain amongst families can be found. It seems like many just try to “bring up to the past.” Instead of building up a relationship that will last. What happened last month or last year “sticks” as a “reminder.” It’s no wonder why many families refuse to be “kinder.” A harsh word said, or an “offensive” action taken. Soon, this individual is “cast out” and forsaken. What in the world are people trying to be? We all need to walk in Christ’ love… Can’t they see? I’ve sinned and “offended” someone along the way. I’m glad that Christ doesn’t “cast me away!” What if Christ treated us the way we treat our brother??? We’d all be thrown out and “tossed into the gutter!” Can’t we at least try to apply 1 Cor. Chapter 13! My God’s love and grace is sufficient for ANYTHING! God’s love can do for you what no other love can do! It can bring a new meaning in the words; “I love YOU!” Isn’t it about time we all bow our heads in prayer… And try to be more of Christ’ example to show we care! If we don’t try God’s healing process in “mending a broken heart.” Then “where in the world” is it going to start? Uplifting and encouraging others begins with you and me! It’s the only way… That in Christ Jesus.. We can be FREE! By Jim Pemberton
