Sunday blessing.

Brutal honesty. On Friday, I was sitting in a doctor's office, bored, so I started texting my best friend. I got tired of texting. I was alone in the waiting room so I called instead. We were talking, and as I was she told me something that I've thought of much. She said I sell myself too short. I know she's right. I've taken to heart all the discouraging things said about me, and held them as truth. It's time I discarded them, and rely on what God says about me. Maybe when you discourage me, I should just pray for you. Kill them with kindness. Love those that loathe you.

    It may be trite, but one is reminded of the old adage "sticks and stones my break my bones, but words can never hurt me" - mother used it a lot on my when I felt that I was the butt of others' "jokes". The thing is, we alone are responsible for who we are, how we respond to the world and whether we let it in or not. Certainly prayer and contemplation aid us in this regard. We can never stop the behaviour of others. We CAN alter our own behaviour. Lord helps those who help themselves. ...it helps to have friends who reflect us to ourselves too!!! YAM xx

  5. I always tell myself that whatever people think about me is none of my business. It's equally true that what I think of others is none of their business. Good way to live.

    Have a blessed day, Regine. ☺

  13. So easy to take the difficult things to heart and neglect the good ones. Your friend sounds wise and your words are good ones to remember.
