How Are You Responding To Hate, Hurt, Pain, and Negativity? Is Your Response A Response Of Love?

 How do you respond to hate?   How do you respond to hurt and to pain?   How do you respond to negativity?   How do YOU respond?   Sometimes it is easy to see the response of others but we need to be able to see our own response.    

Do you respond to hate with love?   Do you respond to hurt and pain with love?   Do you respond to negativity with love?   Understand, no matter what situation we find ourselves in, our response should always be a love response.   We must always remember that God is love and He should be seen at the forefront of all we do and all we say. 

This is where we have to make sure we are responding instead of reacting.    When someone or something hurts you, it's easy to react based on your own emotions but we have to get to a place where we respond based on God's Word.    Don't allow hatred, hurt, pain, or negativity to cause you to forget that You have been called by God to represent Him in the earth.   People look at you and they also look to you.    Your response carries an affect.   It helps other see through the lens of your life what it means to live for God despite the afflictions you encounter in the world because God sees and knows all the afflictions you go through and He hears your cry.  

 

SCRIPTURE MEDITATION 

 Psalms 106:44

Nevertheless he regarded their affliction, when he heard their cry:

What Is The "All" That God Is Asking? Do You Know How To Answer The "Who", "What", "When", "Why", and "Wheres" In Your Life?

What is the "all" that God is asking?   The everything?    The thing that it would take in order for the things that He has promised to come into your life.   What is it that He is desiring from you?   Is it passion?  Or is it compassion?    What is it that you need to do in order to be more like Him?

In order to answer the questions.....you have to know who He is.    God "is" love.......

Love is "who" God is.   Love is "what" God is.   "When" you are all alone....it is at that time "when" you feel God's love the most.   Love is "why" God sacrificed.    Love is "where" God is.    You have to understand that the "who", "what", "when", "why" and "wheres" ...... are all answered by God's love.  

God is all around you.   He is the answer to every question you have in life.   However, sometimes the "when" response is left up to you.    When will God move?   When you get in position.    When will God speak?   When you stop talking.

In life, we act in response to what others do and say.   Aren't you thankful that God is not like that.    His response is always based on His love for you.    That's what we need to learn how to do.   To give a God response to every situation in life.    To respond in love.    Regardless of what someone says or what they do.....we should always respond in the personality of God.    Your personality is the combination of the characteristics and qualities that make your character distinctive.    God is distinctive.....He is distinguishable and noticeable.    He is not like everyone and everything else.   His personality always reflects who He is.   He is love.  

So as you answer "life" today.....answer it in love.    Give the answer that heals, sets free, and delivers.    The answer that provides and promotes hope in every situation.    Give the "all" that God is asking for ...... so that "all" that He is ...... can come to you and flow through you.  

Keep in mind that "all" that God is ...... is Love.    Every answer to every situation (the who, what, when, why, and where) is found in the love of God.
