GRATEFUL GIRL'S THOUGHT FOR THE DAY Sponsored by hbkcpa.com/consultants/melissa-crowley/ Have you ever noticed how rude someone can be when shielded by a phone or computer? #cowards I mean, I guarantee you that the nasty gram I recently got from a stranger would not have been something verbalized if we were face to elongated skull --er, I mean face. Allow me to backtrack. I sent out a group text to some pals and accidentally included a wrong number. Not only did the unintended party not appreciate his extraneous invitation, he practically called the police to complain about the noise, Capsice? "Are you stupid or something? Why do you keep texting me? I don't know you - delete this number from your contacts immediately!" Wow...somebody got up on the wrong side of the cave, huh, Neanderthal man? #rude Ah, well, that's okay. I still apologized because it was the right thing to do. Funny, because after I did, he was suddenly silent. #uncouthanduncool But I understand. It must be hard for him to text with all that hair on his knuckles. It's probably also tough for him to focus on a little smart phone screen with those over-sized eyes and that protruding forehead. Poor under-developed brained, subspecies little thing. #dontmessiwthawordsgirl 1 Jn 3:11-21 Beloved: This is the message you have heard from the beginning: we should love one another, unlike Cain who belonged to the Evil One and slaughtered his brother. Why did he slaughter him? Because his own works were evil, and those of his brother righteous. Do not be amazed, then, brothers and sisters, if the world hates you. We know that we have passed from death to life because we love our brothers. Whoever does not love remains in death. Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life remaining in him. The way we came to know love was that he laid down his life for us; so we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers. If someone who has worldly means sees a brother in need and refuses him compassion, how can the love of God remain in him? Children, let us love not in word or speech but in deed and truth. Now this is how we shall know that we belong to the truth and reassure our hearts before him in whatever our hearts condemn, for God is greater than our hearts and knows everything. Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence in God.
