Romans 12 New King James Version (NKJV) Behave Like a Christian 9 Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good. 10 Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another; 11 not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; 12 rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer; 13 distributing to the needs of the saints, given to hospitality. 14 Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. 15 Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep. 16 Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion. 17 Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men. 18 If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men. 19 Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,”[a] says the Lord. 20 Therefore “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; If he is thirsty, give him a drink; For in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head.”[b] 21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. Sure didnt behave like a Christian this weekend. :( It seemed like every time I turned around someone was saying or doing something that made me loose my peace. I said things I shouldnt have, acted like I shouldnt have, and definitely didnt responded like I should have. One day I will learn that Satan works through other people to try to get to me. I shouldnt be angry at the person that is doing the offenses, they dont truly understand what they are doing or saying. I need to learn to quickly give those feelings to God and allow Him to handle the situations instead of me reacting in the wrong way...because as this weekend proves..in my humanness I will not act the way I should. If I can just learn that the instant I feel offended to give it to God I know I will not feel the need to react. Ive got some growing to do...... :/
