Our pride and ego get in the way of our blessings.

Let’s not be quick to avenge.

But, be quick to forgive.

Ephesians 4:32 (KJV) – and be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.

Our mouths are poisonous and untamed.

You curse man and turn around and bless God with the same mouth.

James 3:8-9 (KJV) – but the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. Therewith bless we God, even the Father, and therewith curse we men, which are made after the simultude of God.

Man is made in the image of God.

Please know, YOU ARE YOUR BROTHER’S KEEPER, not his enemy.

Love him.

Matthew 22:37-39 (KJV) – Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

Romans 12:21 (KJV) – be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

Proverbs 3:6 (KJV) – in all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

II Corinthians 1:9 (KJV) – but we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead.

God is merciful towards you and will comfort you in all your trials.

Even if you were the one who caused the trial.

II Corinthians 1:3 (KJV) – who comforted us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.
