Recently while scrolling through social media I came across a document type of platform. Someone just walking around recording random strangers and asking this question, and the answers are not what you would expect. Some answered directly and to the point and when pressed about why or why not, the door of conversation would open. Most were really transparent and those who had true happiness were always quick to point out that it was JESUS who was the reason for their countenance.
How much do we really value other people?
Enough to care about them beyond “how are you”? Do we really want to hear something other than the usual “fine” reply, because for most, these conversations need to happen.
What if today were your last day? How would you show others how you value them? I’m guessing you would do more than normal. It’s a simple matter of asking and listening. You don’t have to have answers. Remember God gave us two ears and one mouth, the need to listen outweighs the need to speak.
The word says and I’m paraphrasing a part: lets be quick to listen today and slow to speak. As well as, the least we do undo those (Are you Happy?) we have done unto Him.
But whatever we do:
Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure , pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you. Luke 6:38
In Christ Love, Amen
