#Let #your #light #so #shine #before #men, #that #they #may #see #your #good #works #and #glorify #your #Father #in #heaven. Does the Bible say that love conquers hate? There is only one remedy for hate and that is love, a love that is patient, kind, does not envy, does not boast, is not proud, not rude, not self-seeking, not easily angered, keeps no record of wrongs, etc. (1 Cor. 13:4-7). “Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” John 1:5 means that God is the light in the dark world that we live in. His light brings healing, hope, and direction to those who are lost and hurting. Why did God say to love your enemies? But Jesus' command to love those we perceive to be our enemies is actually a tool for discernment, and for our own salvation. To love our enemies means a great deal more than to simply not wish evil upon them; it means making a conscious effort to find a path to our own mercy, for their sake and our own.

Alphabet O: Keep #opportunity #opportunities at bay. No matter what classification the opportunity is, keep it. It's OKAY to narrow in on one thing. It's okay to have multiple options.

1

Alphabet R: Be #Respectful. When being respectful, we must ALWAYS be #accepting. #Individuals have individual #beliefs and #norms. To force YOUR #UNDERSTANDING into their functioning is a form of #inconsideration #invalidation or #disrepect.

1

Alphabet T: Be Truthful. I am not a #robot. Because of this, I choose not to act as such. #Individuality I am not #inhumane. Because of this, I choose not to be as such. #Humane I am not #incapable of. Because of this, I choose not think as such. #NoLimits "What's one word to describe your #leadership style?" That was a question on a recent application. After thinking of all the robotic answers that companies look for, I typed "Humane". All the #qualities and #characteristics that a robot could not possess. I am not #AI therefore I shall not live as such.

1

Alphabet U: Be #Undeniably you! Be your #Authentic self. I can't recall the number of times I've heard/read the "Give a word that would describe yourself" question. A question that NORMALLY minimizes an individual. The minimization can either be emphasized by the #recruiter due to their limitation of intellectual thinking. Or, the one word used negating your other amazing traits! #Indescribable - Realistically, ask someone to describe you. What did they miss out? Nothing, isn't the answer. If it is, take a moment and ask yourself "Am I not more? Why am I limiting myself?" 🏆 #Uncontainable - Meaning, I will do what must be done to achieve ___. Do not TRY to contain my; success, happiness, or destiny. Tell whomever that they will fail trying! 👏🏿 #Unmeasurable - Do not "limit" yourself. If you do or have been, get ready to destroy that #StatuteOfLimitation !! 👏🏿 It's time for the next milestone. #Sophisticated - Many people lack social experiences outside of their #friends, #family, and regional residence. Again, 8+ billion people in the #🌎Population and one will stick to knowing or meeting just a few hundred or a thousand. 📢 Booooooo #Different - I refuse to be a copy of. I will not be you. We can share similarities, but attempting to be YOU equate to me not being myself. That. Is. Unacceptable. Embrace & accept #differences. Understand, that your difference might; save a life, inspire, be an 💡, or something greater! #Blessed - #GoodEnergy #Vibes #Joy #Honesty #Straightforward No matter what you go through, you're still here! Able to. #Embracing - Embrace all your traits. 😃 😊 😟 😋 😜 🤪 😂 🤔 They create YOU!

Alphabet V. Keep #Verbalising your "bad" emotions and thoughts. BUT, do it in a less #aggressive way. Do not hold the unhappy & unhealthy emotions in you. They are unhealthy! Everyone isn't able to pay for #Therapy (#Therapist), #Psychologist, or is a "church goer". Find someone you #trust or can trust to go to battle with you. If you are unsuccessful in finding someone, begin trusting yourself. Talk to yourself . Rather internal or out loud. Find a quiet serene location to begin. One which is not associated with frustration. Whatever you say, ask why. Ex. "I don't like the sun." "Why?" "Because it's bright and makes me hot." "Why is it bright?" "Why does it or could it possibly make me hot?" Your answers when #decoded will allow you to find ... the good or useful !!!! Even in hate, there is love. Decoded. "I don't like the sun." "Why?" "Because it's bright and makes me hot." - It's bright because ALL living organism #benefit from it. It's a #necessity of our existence. "Why is it bright?" - How would we see the magnificent creations as we #journey in the 🌍 🌐. Without the sun, we would live in a more darken state. Could we see individual beauty? "Why does it make me hot/uncomfortable?" - It is to provide #warmth and #nourishment. Maybe the comfortability issue is a indication of inadequate water, fruit intake or improper #dieting. Become more #positive.

Alphabet Z: Be of #Zen when moving through your #life. Again, my grandmother says I have a "do not care attitude". She does not like this. My mother taught me not to care if "Someone says anything bad about me or her." As I aged in life, & place my mother's teaching into forefront, I applaud that teaching & message. Do not allow #incorrect nor #inadequate #assumptions or #judgments dictate your #existence nor #destinations. Do not put "that" #energy, for which would have been used to respond, in the offending person cup. Instead! Add it to your cup of "They wish they could be". Just say #ThankYou #Interesting #IsThatSo #HowDoesThatMakeYouFeel even a #YoureRight. Accept the feedback, study the situation, and change IF change is needed! Do not #entertain someone's #intentional or #unintentional rude #behavior or #actions. Your day will come to an end WITH & AT #peace. Only YOU can choose for it not to be! #Rejected #Rejection - Say "Thank You" - Know your #value. Never! #Depreciate yourself. Being #kind and #courteous with no acknowledgment of you're act? A simple #YouAreWelcome is suffice. Do not allow other people #impolite behavior dim away your internal AND eternal sun ✨️ ! If someone says "you don't fit here or there", prove to > YOURSELF < that you can fit anywhere. Your: #Existence #Sanity #Happiness #Comfortablity #Emotions #Thoughts #WellBeing #Life run all day, every day. A(n) bad experience or interaction is just that. 'A' or 'An'. #Singular #Individual #otu #moja #hiji #youn #unum #ọkan # #Uno #Un #אחד # واحد #eyodwa #isa One life that we'll remember. There is no reason for it to be filled more with #unacceptance #anger #unease nor #hate.

The power of words cannot be underestimated. Through our language, we have the ability to shape lives, change perspectives, and create a positive impact on the world around us. Proverbs 18:21 reminds us of the responsibility we carry in choosing our words carefully, as they possess the potential to bring life and death. Let us embrace this responsibility with sincerity and compassion, using our words to uplift, inspire, and support one another. By doing so, we can create a world where every interaction has the power to transform lives and make a lasting difference. The Impact of Encouragement Encouragement serves as a catalyst for personal growth and resilience. When we choose to uplift and inspire others, we instill in them a sense of confidence and belief in their abilities. A simple word of encouragement can ignite a spark within someone, propelling them forward on their journey of self-discovery and achievement.

I highly recommend this video featuring Mohammed Qahtani. Whether you are in a relationship, raising kids, leading a team, or running a large organization, words truly matter. When we are careless with our words we often produce the opposite of our desired outcome—and then we wonder why ‘they’ aren’t doing what I want, or behaving the way I expect. In the era of AI, being human is more important than ever. And it is hard work—no one is perfect at it and we all miss the mark from time to time. Be gentle with yourself and others; and keep striving for better! #communication #leadership #hr #career #development

Daily devotion from Bible League International !August 15, 2024Today's Verse[Jesus said,] “So I tell you, don’t worry about the things you need to live—what you will eat, drink, or wear.”Matthew 6:25 ERVDevotionWhat, you might ask, is wrong with worrying about what you will eat, drink, or wear? In our verse for today, Jesus must be overstating His case. People need these things and must take care to follow the steps necessary to get them. Foolish people don’t think about them and often go without them as a result. Surely, it’s wise to worry. Those who worry will get up and do what they have to do to get what they need. Why would Jesus say otherwise?There are at least four reasons why Christians should not fret about early needs. First, those who worry fail to prioritize rightly. They get distracted by their worries and forget about what’s truly important, seeking the kingdom of God. Indeed, this is the top priority. In contrast, those who worry think that filling their needs is of first importance. They forget Jesus said, “What you should want most is God’s kingdom and doing what he wants you to do” (Matthew 6:33).Second, those who worry fail to mature spiritually. They hear the Word of God, they hear the Gospel message, but their worries keep them from ever producing any fruit. They become like the soil whose produce is choked by thorny weeds in Jesus’ Parable of the Sower. Jesus said, “What about the seed that fell among the thorny weeds? That is like the people who hear God’s teaching, but they let the worries, riches, and pleasures of this life stop them from growing. So they never produce a crop” (Luke 8:14).Third, those who worry will fail to prepare for the return of Jesus Christ. They focus so much attention on their worries that they never prepare for the most important event to come. Jesus said, “Be careful not to spend your time having parties and getting drunk or worrying about this life. If you do that, you won’t be able to think straight, and the end might come when you are not ready” (Luke 21:34).Finally, those that worry fail to see that their anxiety is simply not necessary. The Lord promises to take care of those that place first things first. When you place what’s truly important first, “Then he will give you all these other things you need” (Matthew 6:33).
