OH, TO BE A CHAMPION LOVER!

Using 2 Tim. 2:25, "Be humble when you correct people who oppose you.  Maybe God will lead them and (they will) turn to Him and learn the truth."


(Although this was originally written some time ago, I will repeat it just as it was.) Today was Sunday, and I made a very childish, un-loving remark to someone.  Yet, no one scolded me.  I was met with love and humility.  They heard my "self" actions with Christ-like reactions.  I am humbled by their kind spirits and hope God showed me through them what is the loving way to react to someone's error.


I am still praying to someday have the humility and love that was returned to me in exchange for my selfish remark.  I will continue to pray hard, and hope my friends are still praying for me, too, for my transformation. But, I will always suffer from imperfection.  I will always have a "way to go."  I will, however, be grateful to God that He loves me "in-spite-of" and forgives.


Oh, God, of small and large miracles, I thank you for friends that forgive. Help me to be transformed in my spirit that I might have kindness and humility towards others.  Help me to be a Champion Lover.  Amen.
