Listening With Love

By Roland Moore, The United Faith

Luke 18:14 NIV
“I tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”

Often times, I find myself greeting people I see and come in contact with on a daily basis with a simple phrase… “Hey, how you doin?” Not realizing my phrase is a question, I continue walking off without hearing their response. I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s done this. Ever wonder if someone really needs to talk? Ever wonder if someone really needs to know someone cares how they’re doing? I know I need to work more on listening with love, as we all do. May we ask the Lord to help us be quick to listen and slow to speak and to judge. A proud attitude so easily infects our lives. Ask God to give you a humility that reflects His heart and love. We don’t get closer to God by passing judgment on others or by passing them on the streets. Find time to really listen to someone today, with love. Don’t be so proud that you feel you’re too good to be there for someone else.

Elevate Your Mind

By Roland Moore, The United Faith

Isaiah‬ ‭55‬:‭8-9‬ NLT “My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the LORD. “And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine. For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.

We’re supposed to have the mindset of Christ. Since we’re not born thinking like God, we have to purposely and diligently seek to elevate our minds and thoughts to His level. And the way we can do that is through talks with Him(praying and listening) and reading/hearing His word. That’s how we can continually learn His ways. When we start thinking godly then we can act/live godly. As long as we have our lowly and selfish mindset, we’ll always live in an ungodly and unhealthy manner. And that’s not how God intends for us to live. We were created in His image and we should reflect that image. Glory to God

Love >>> Hate

By Roland Moore, The United Faith

John‬ ‭15‬:‭18-19‬ NKJV “If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. 

The world hated Jesus so quite naturally they’ll hate his loved ones that He died for and chose. Jesus didn’t, nor does He call His own to hate others back. No matter what type of hate, jealousy, envy, sabotages, or any other evil you face, if you’re a child and friend of God then He requires you to love others. Not just the people that love you but also the ones that hate and spitefully use you.

Life Is Short

By Roland Moore, The United Faith

Psalm 39:4 NIV
“Show me, Lord, my life’s end and the number of my days; let me know how fleeting my life is.”

Life is short no matter how long we live. If we have something important we want to do, we must not put it off for a better day. Ask yourself, “If I had only six months to live, what would I do?” Tell someone that you love them? Deal with an undisciplined area in your life? Tell someone about Jesus? Because life is short, don’t neglect what is truly important!
