I  once  was  very  distressed  in  my  spiritual  life  because  I  seemingly  could not  remember  important  things , I  once was  banned  from  a  favorite  place  of  felowship  on  the  internet  for  not  being  able  to  remember ,  thats  about  as  worse  as  it  gets  needless  to  say  i know  that nothing  can  seperate  me  from  the  Love  of  God .  I spent  some  time  believeing that Jesus  must not  love  me  if  my  minister  wanted  rid  of  me  because  I  could  not  remember  to not  post It  was  hard  being  seperated  from  everything  I  believed in ,  i  finally  understood  that  when  things  happen without  right  reasoning ,  we  just  have  to  go  foward knowing  God  does  have  better  things  ahead . I  believe  that  if  more  internet  based  fellowships  would  embrace  the  peacemaking  principles  out  lined  in  the  Bible  there  would  be  less throw  away  christians . Its  hard  to  comprehend  that  this  happens  in  our  digital  computerized  world  but  it  does !!! Anyway point being I want to make is that my spiritual life as a Christian was seriously derailed for a long while due to how I was treated and it was never all my fault except that I should have been more wise in choosing , but hindsight is just that . I could not have  known  when the apostle Paul urged the Corinthians to live to the glory of God he was not talking about one hour on Sunday these concepts are totally over looked in most conflicts because people naturally focus on escaping from the situation or over coming their opponent .your actions and own words say that clearly you did . also one of the most challenging principles set forth in peacemaking is found in Matthew 7:5 . there are generally two kinds of logs to look for when dealing with conflict first you need to ask whether you yourself or maybe others have had a critical a negative or a overly sensitive attitude that has led to unnecessary conflict one of the best ways to do this is to spend some time meditating of Philippians 4:2-9 which describes the kind of attitude Christians should have even when they are involved in a conflict the second kind of log you must deal with is sinful words actions because u are often blind to your own , u may need a honest friend or adviser who will help you take a objective look at your self, and  whats  good  .  Discernment  grows  as  we  do .     Report
