"A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver." Proverbs 25:11
Words to live by. How often do we snap at people because they snapped at us? And then say, 'well, that's how they talk to me'? Does that make it right?
This past week, I've had people snapping at people all around me and I really don't like it. It makes me very uncomfortable. It also makes me realize that people who have no hope in Jesus have bitterness in their hearts. These people who are snapping at us or around us need our prayers and witness in their lives so that maybe they can change theirs.
And as for me - if I could only be half as good as a person as my dog thinks I am, I'd be great ! ! My dog loves me unconditionally and is usually always happy to see me. She is a sweet little dog and is always there and doesn't snap :-)
Until later,
Charlene

How true -- if people would speak with a kind heart, things would be different.
