Thought For Today - 5/9/2011











The past several days I have been challenged with relationships.  Relationships are very important to me, especially the individuals in the very small circle I'm connected too.  
One of the challenge was to stand firm on my communication on a certain subject.  The subject was also relationships.  My firm stand as I communicated was to always act, live and walk in love.  Offense will come, but it is our choice to receive it or not.
I know God wants us all to maintain a love connection and live in peace with everyone.  From personal experience, sometimes maintaining the love connection and living in peace has to be from a distance for a while.
I suggested to pray for their relationships.  As they do, something not only happens to the individual they are praying for, but something happens to them.  This is how I see God working most of the time.  
In conclusion my suggestion was to pray for them, help them anyway they could if possible. God could and would then be able to appear on the scene.  
We must keep our spirits open to receive and not allow offense to come.
Love you!
Joseph
