To many times of late!

This may or may not come as a surprise to anyone but, the enemy does not care about feelings or emotions. In so far as, not wanting to hurt or offend another. It only knows we do. And, it has used this against many of late. I am not able to speak for anyone else, only myself. I know my heart, and I have said it again and again, “if I have offended someone, I have and will always invite them to share that information with me.” To many times of late, have I allowed the enemy room, so I would second guess myself. As to if, I have wronged someone in anyway. By giving the enemy permission, to suggest I might of done or said the wrong thing. In doing this, I have chosen not to say anything if there was a possibility I would hurt another. My Prayer is that, all either can see my heart or, believe me when I say, “come tell me if I have wronged you.” Because, me letting the enemy mess with my thinking, is over by the Grace and Power of Jesus. I have witnessed to many times and people, taking offensive when none was offered. This has deeply hurt and disheartened to many. If, when someone shares, and what they share strikes a nerve or a part of their heart. It is their responsibility to either go to that person, and ask for clarification or, get on their hands and knees before the Lord, and see if the Spirit of the Lord is telling them something. No one ever has the right to attack another. Now, that works on both sides of the coin. To take offensive when none offered and then strike out at the person, is the same as attacking someone. The damage that is done by wrongly accusing someone, can be devastating. Then more damage is done when, acting as a victim. This is wrong, and can only lead to damage.
When Jesus told us, Matt 22:37-39 Jesus answered him, " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.' 38This is the greatest and most important commandment. 39The second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as you love yourself.'
For most that sums it all up. Yet, there are those who, either do not know how to love themselves, or simply put don’t love themselves at all. This is a place where many get tripped up. They simply for whatever reason, do not even like who they are. And, because they have not understood this, try as they may they fail, and some then just give up. They see others able to care in a way they do not even understand. What can be done, for this? Which also, ties into something else I want to touch on. We can not fix anyone. It is past our pay grade. This kind of thing, as well as all others, is only achieved by Jesus. To Him goes all the Glory. The Spirit of the Lord, will instruct us. We are able to share His Words. We are able to conduct our affairs, in Love towards others, the best we know how. But, we can fix no one. We are to Pray and humble ourselves before the Lord, for others. For anyone to get better, they must have the desire, and obedience to His Word. I have seen to many think that, if only they can say or do the right thing, then the other person will be all better. The enemy loves this because, when the other person does not get better then, the enemy beats them up with guilt. Even the other person, will put the responsibility of there change on another. And, when they see no head way then it is the other’s fault not theirs. Gal 6:2 Help carry each other's burdens. In this way you will follow Christ's teachings. True enough. But, continue on, 4Each of you must examine your own actions. Then you can be proud of your own accomplishments without comparing yourself to others. 5Assume your own responsibility. The entire chapter needs to be read. 7Make no mistake about this: You can never make a fool out of God. Whatever you plant is what you'll harvest. 10Whenever we have the opportunity, we have to do what is good for everyone, especially for the family of believers. 14-16But it's unthinkable that I could ever brag about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. By his cross my relationship to the world and its relationship to me have been crucified. 15Certainly, it doesn't matter whether a person is circumcised or not. Rather, what matters is being a new creation. 16Peace and mercy will come to rest on all those who conform to this principle. They are the Israel of God. I just skipped to different verses to make a point. We are to help in anyway we can. But, we are not the one that bring change. All the Glory to to God. We must do what we can, but to much is getting lost by wrong behaviour. I want to cover these issues in more depth, over a period of time in “Working Our Faith Out” We must learn to Love and how to be Loved. How to Pray for others and receive from God. The enemy has no place in our life. It will try to get in to our life. As we chose to operate, in the Light. Plain words to one another. Straight talk in Love, in the Light of Jesus. Open desire to serve God, to bring Glory to Jesus. Learn to move in the Spirit. Study His Word, share with one another. Pray and lift each other up. Operate only in obedience to His Word, and His Ways, in Love. We can not fix each other, but we can help each other.
