Truth from my friend Paula

Sometimes, people drive me crazy!Share

People are so quick to say "Judge not lest you be judged also...," which is not saying don't form opinions, but rather, is dealing with the heart attitude behind it. If the heart is motivated by love and moved with compassion, then the words, attitudes, and reactions will reflect that. If there is a finger pointing with words saying, "You are Wrong! You are selfish! You always ______! You ______, You ______, You_______, does that demonstrate greater love hath no man than this that he lay down his life for a friend? We have friends serving the Lord in Israel, who have been under fire for months, not by those who hate Israel, but by "brothers and sisters in the Lord" who disagree with a walk in obedience to the Lord. How can anyone say, "God wouldn't tell you to do this or that" if the "this or that" is not in opposition to His Righteousness, Justice, and Character. Unless God is speaking audibly in the natural to human ears, His voice is the gentle whisper in our hearts (sometimes not so gentle). :) If what I am hearing lines up with His Word, nature, and character, no one can say what I heard is not His voice. Once again, paraphrasing Oswald Chambers about the call of the sea and likening it to the call of God: No one understands it unless he also has that call. Okay, I'll get off my soapbox now. LOL
