He Who Has the Last Word

Sometimes you have to do for others
For what it would seem to be of a loss for you
But that is what love is my friend
You have to take it for what it is
If it’s always benefitting you
What is there to love?
How would you like if God said the same thing to you
“I would love you only the portion that you love me?”
Would God do that to you?
Why then we do that to others?
People make mistakes
And maybe you caught them on a bad day
Or they could be somewhere on a travel course with God
Where He is working on them
You don’t know
They could be anything
Say anything
And that would tick you off
You can say anything
Do anything
But it is up to God 
To have the last word
You just be 
Do 
The thing you are supposed to do
-which is love
God will resolve the situation
It is in His hands
He will handle it
In His own time
How would you know how He would handle it?

This is the truth. God does things in his own time, not when we want him to. It is he that has the last word. Thanks for sharing... Lucilla
