How do we die for our brothers and sisters?
To find the answer we must understand what is really happening in the world around us.
We need to know how this world’s mind functions and we need to find out how it came to
function as it does.
Once we can diagnose and acknowledge the error of its thinking, we can recognize the
remedy for that which may be destructive.
The remedy may be rejected or even despised by the world as we know it. Why?
It breaks down and challenges the previous false beliefs that have moved on through many
generations.
It is our duty as a race to inquire, seek and find the truth if we are to function healthily.
We need to examine the part we play toward the outcome of every moment.
The beauty in doing so is that it is a mission accessible to every human being.
When someone comes to us in ways that seem unreasonable, it is our gift and our
opportunity to speak a life giving word in that person’s life.
We must be able to respond in a way that will beckon destructive mindsets into a mindset
that is constructive.
Can we expose our attempts fashioned for others to see our way?
Do we desire to be transformed?
TRANS means over, across or beyond, it is our choice to be formed over across and
beyond our limited ability.
ROM 12:2
Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind,
that you may prove what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
Do Words Lead to Destruction?
Not when we know who we are, but how we respond to peoples words or comments can.
The way that we interact with others can either help bring a person closer to the truth or
push them deeper into what has seemed to be the truth for them for a very long time.
To die for others is to die to the destructive ways of responding, to remember to respond
with love as the priority.
To be kind instead of being right, even when we know something to be true.
When we attempt to get a message across, do we succeed because of our method?
Do we criticise or invalidate a character, even resort to outright name calling? Just to
be right?
Does our approach help situations, or are we filled at an others expense?
