We all start off with simplicity of heart, as a child is birth.
- simple thoughts, simple heart, simple faith and love.
as we grow up, we face different challenges, disappointments, or happy moments that often shape our belief system, that in turn affects how we react to situations / people.
to keep that simplicity, and to stay on the right track that we were created for,
it takes us to guard our hearts by
the Word of God and the Holy Spirit
- to teach us the ways, to instill the right values, to give us the wisdom to make the right decisions
too often than not, instead, we allow circumstances to shape our beliefs instead.
as such, we result in allowing the wrong or sometimes bitter things to corrupt that simplicity that we once possess.
Friends, let's not nurse or curse the hurt, but let God and His Word heal our lives. to bring Christ into culture, to bring everything back to His original purpose, it first starts with self - renewal.
Renewing our minds, refreshing our hearts with the Word and Holy Spirit. to bring ourselves back to His original intention and purpose.
when it comes to people who have disappointed or not met your expectations,
communicate, share and pray over it with each other. ask Holy Spirit to give you the grace and strength (enlarged heart) to forgive, let go and love again.
when it comes to disappointment with what's happening in our lives,
strengthen ourselves in the Lord thru His Word because He who has begun a good work in us, it is guaranteed that He will complete it. so when we dont breakthru, just keep walking because God is the one who guaranteed the success. without murmuring, complaining, yet strengthening ourselves in the Joy of the Lord to keep walking, God is in-charge.
BEATTITUDES : the beautiful attitudes
and once again, mercy above judgement :)
