Thank you LORD for checking me and giving me insight.
Titus 3 English Standard Version (ESV)
Be Ready for Every Good Work
3 Remind them to be
submissive to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for
every good work, 2 to speak evil of no one, to
avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward all
people. 3 For we ourselves were
once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various passions and
pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by others and hating one
another. 4 But when the goodness
and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, 5 he saved us, not because of works done by us in
righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of
regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, 6 whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our
Savior, 7 so that being
justified by his grace we might become heirs according to the hope of
eternal life. 8 The saying is trustworthy,
and I want you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed in
God may be careful to devote themselves to good works. These things are
excellent and profitable for people.
I
am quick to fine fault in others that I love but yield to see fault in myself.
I must keep a constant reminder that there is no one perfect. I get caught up in my feelings a lot because
I know MY intent is good and EXPECT everyone else’s intent to be good too, when
in actuality/reality that is not always the case when dealing with people. I know that I have done some people wrong and
I truly from the bottom of my heart apologize because that is nor was it ever my
intent.
Reading the book of “Titus” is helping me deal
with some minor issues that I have gone through. I thank GOD for not being hesitant in forgiving me when I was/am being foolish as I did not want to forgive foolish
people for what they did to me. For the scripture says "when the goodness and loving kindness of GOD our savior appeared, he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy".
Thank You GOD!!!!
