LIVE WITH LOVE TODAY
For you and me, today is all we have; tomorrow is a mirage that may never become reality. Louis L'Amour
Everyone's future is, in reality, uncertain and full of unknown treasurers from which all may draw unguessed prizes. -Lord Dunsany
The future is wider than vision and has no end, -Donald G. Mitchell
You learn to build your roads on today, because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans, and futures have a way of falling down in midflight. Veronica Shoffstal

TRUTH
Truth is unchanging, it is absolute or concrete.
Truth must be consistent, it remains the same.
Truth is universal, it is for all locality or people or nation.
Truth can not be based on one's thoughts and feelings.
Truth is law, it is the divine principle which should govern all men.
Truth is non-Divisive, it brings harmony, there can be no division where truth exist.
Truth illuminates, it gives light which dispels darkness or ignorance.
Truth liberates, it frees you from bondage, bondage in whatever form is the product of darkness or error.

SCRIPTURE FOR THE DAY
PSALM 27
Psa 27:1
A Psalm of David. The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
Psa 27:2
When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
Psa 27:3
Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.
Psa 27:4
One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.
Psa 27:5
For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.
Psa 27:6
And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.
Psa 27:7
Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
Psa 27:8
When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.
Psa 27:9
Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.
Psa 27:10
When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.
Psa 27:11
Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.
Psa 27:12
Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.
Psa 27:13
I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.
Psa 27:14
Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.

PRAYER
At times it may seem difficult to pray and one may say that they are tired of going to God with the same thing over and over again, my friend do not despair Jesus gave a parable of the unjust judge where the lady was going to him very often and she wearied him and because of her constant going to the unjust judge she was granted her desire.
Our Father in heaven is no unjust judge on the contrary he is kind loving and compassionate and His promises are true and shall and will prevail and God shall hear us when we call and deliver us from our distress.
Trust Him today and prayer to Him your desire and need shall be granted.

Reconciliation
Do not suffer resentment to ripen into malice. Do not allow the wound to foster and break out in poisoned words, which taint the minds of those who hear. Do not allow bitter thoughts to continue to fill your mind his. Go to your brother, and in humility and sincerity talk with him about the matter.
Whatever the character of the offense, this not change the plan that God has made for the settlement of misunderstandings and personal injuries. Speaking alone and in the Spirit of Christ to the one who is in fault will often remove the difficulty.
Go to the erring one, with a heart filled with Christ love and sympathy, and seek to adjust the matter. Reason with him calmly and quietly, let no angry words escape your lips. Speak in a way that will appeal to his better judgment.
Remember the words: "He which converth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins." James 5:20. Take to your brother the remedy the remedy that will cure the disease of disaffection. Do your part to help him for the sake of peace and unity of the church, feel it a privilege as well as a duty to do this.
If he will hear hear you, you have gained him as a friend. All heaven is interested in the interview between the one who has been injured and the one who is in error. As the erring one accepts the reproof offered in the love of Christ, and acknowledges his wrong, asking forgiveness from God and from his brother, the sunshine of heaven fills his heart.
The controversy is ended; friendship and confidence are restored, the oil of love removes the soreness caused by the wrong, the Spirit of God binds heart to heart, and there is music in heaven over the union brought about.

PSALM 25
This is such a beautiful Psalm when David was in his distress he cried unto the Lord today this is still in operation when the storms of trial assail us and the mountains come before us, and rivers seem to overflow us and the fire of persecution seam to scorch us to the bone, then shall we cry unto to Lord for deliverance.
God has promise to sustain and keep us to grant unto us peace and stability and the fulfilment of his promises shall He manifest in our life to the rebuke of the devourer and destroyer, who's only intent and plan is to kill, steal, and destroy.
Psa 25:1 Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.
Psa 25:2 O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.
Psa 25:3 Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.
Psa 25:4 Shew me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.
Psa 25:5 Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.
Psa 25:6 Remember, O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy loving kindnesses; for they have been ever of old.
Psa 25:7 Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness' sake, O LORD.
Psa 25:8 Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.
Psa 25:9 The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.
Psa 25:10 All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.
Psa 25:11 For thy name's sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.
Psa 25:12 What man is he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose.
Psa 25:13 His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.
Psa 25:14 The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.
Psa 25:15 Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net.
Psa 25:16 Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted.
Psa 25:17 The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses.
Psa 25:18 Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins.
Psa 25:19 Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred.
Psa 25:20 O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee.
Psa 25:21 Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.
Psa 25:22 Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.

Psalms 24:1-2
The earth is the LORD'S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.
Every thing which is in the earth and of which the earth consit belongs to God the father, we have nothing in this earth which belongs to us we are only the stewards of God to give Him an account for all the things he loaned unto us.
The working of the demon is to make us believe that we of our self can attain and acquire possessions, however this is not true if God does not give you the strength and allow you to remember you forget all which you have to do.
Because man is not edified about the true owner of his belongings he claims them as his own and begins to exalt himself above his neighbour who may be less fortunate than you and you are not aware that God has allowed this so you can share the bounties which He has blest you with.
Always remember this verse of scripture, Joh 3:27 John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven.
Isa 40:17 All nations before him are as nothing; and they are counted to him less than nothing, and vanity.
1Pe 1:24 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away."
1Ti 6:7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.
Hag 2:8 The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts.
These few verse show that we are nothing and less than nothing, Jesus in us makes us something without him we are just an empty shell.
Love your neighbour as yourself and how you would like to be treated give the same treatment to other's be caring, be pitiful, and show concern and love.

THE CURSE
ZECHARIAH 5:3 SAYS "This is the curse which goeth forth over all the earth"
The curse began from the time the demon tabernacled himself in the mind and heart of Adam and Eve, and so the floodgate of the curse of sin entered to blight man's, Adam's offspring spiritually, health-wise, and financial prosperity.
Curse comes because of the blight of sin. And it is flying over the earth representing the demons running with haste over the the earth to tabernacle in the body temple of the earth's inhabitants to cause and spread the curse of sorrow, pain, dissapointment, stealing, murder, theft, lying, hatred, fornication, adultery, imoral behaviour, and every thing which exalted and oposeth itself against the character of God.
John 10:10 says "the thief cometh not but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy."
Stealing is the product of the demon and his impse, the curse is the demon in the body temple of man to blight their spiritual prospect and salvation, and to work through them to manifest ambivalence against the kingdom of God.
Isaiah 24:6
Deuteronomy 28:15

WARFARE
In the natural order of things when you are in a fight there are some things you must do and there are some things which must happen and you see and touch while you are preparing for the fight and while you fight.
You must prepare for the fight and you put forth all your energies and and zeal to win the fight, you study the moves of your opponent, you practice, equip yourself, eat and drink healthy. You do all this because you do not wish to lose the fight if you win you will be rewarded with the accolade's and praise of men and peradventure financial gain.
If you lose the fight you feel ashamed and inadequate. In the natural order of things you see your opponent, however in the Spiritual warfare you only feel the blows you see no opponent. Because of these things let us come to judgment and understanding. Jesus is our only defence and is the only one fully equipped and qualified to fight this battle for us. We are inept to fight this battle and join with me in saying thank God for fighting this battle for us all glory be to his name alone, we of our self can do nothing.
Thank you Lord for your sacrifice and love, below is a few passages of scripture for consideration and meditation.
Rom 7:12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
2Co 10:4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
2Co 10:5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalted itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
2Co 10:6 And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
(2Ti 2:4)
No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
(Rom 7:23)
But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
(2Co 10:4)
(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
(Rom 13:12)
The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.
(Eph 6:11)
Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
(1Th 5:8)
But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
Remember the wiles of the demon is a death trap to ensnare and kill.

THE UNGODLY WHO IS HE?
The ungodly first is the Devil known as the Dragon or whatever name is attributed to him, he became the ungodly because he has no God in him. The only counsel the Devil can give is godless ungodly counsel.
The man whom the Devil counsel's will also become ungodly and he will hand down this ungodly counsel to others' and then you have a bunch of ungodly people giving counsel and sad to say many times the ungodly counsel many who profess to be of God hence the saying a profession is nothing.
And the man who walks in the counsel of the ungodly will eventually be like a barren tree which brings forth no fruit and complete and perfected unrighteousness to the glorification of the Devil the one who destroys.
However I am happy to say that there is a people which walks not in the counsel of the ungodly and this man or people is blest and so shall he be eternally. Because the man walks not in the counsel of the ungodly then he is walking in the counsel of the godly and the counsel of the godly comes from God himself.
This man who walks in the counsel of the godly will delight in the law of the Lord and in His law he will have delight and meditate day and night. His reward for doing this is being like a tree planted by the rivers of water, and bringeth forth fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
Let us today be that man which is planted by the river's of water and walks in the counsel of the godly.

Predestination
Praise God,
Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour. Titus 3:5,6
According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love. Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will...In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will. Ephesians 1:4, 5, 11
Moreover, whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified...
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, for thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:30, 35-39

SELF OUT OF THE PICTURE
Self-centered. adj. Obsessed with one self and one’s affairs.
Self-ish adj. Concerned mainly with one’s own needs or wishes.
The Divine plan of God is to show His Selflessness to the world that His glory will be manifested. The enemy of God through his perverted Spirit of rebellion puts the thought into the man’s mind that God is harsh, dictatorial, self-ish, and self-centered. If the latter were true, none of us would of being in existence.

GOD WORK'S IN US
The Love of God is given to all of God’s created beings as the Natural affection 1 Timothy 3:1-3
The Saving Love and the Natural love is given to the saints of God through redemption 1 John 7-21. The Saints of God have both The Natural Affection and the Saving Love of God.
Moreover, because God made man he works in man to point him to his creator to glorify him. So in all things God The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit comes first, God opens the understanding of the man to know that His temple is belonging to God, it is his tabernacle and works in that man to love his natural frame, and who he is.
That man becomes a parent and it is the plan of God for that man to train, teach, and instruct his wife and children guided by the Spirit of God. The man’s neighbours, who may be an enemy or friend has the life of God in him and so he must be loved as a created being of God The Father, Neighbours is anyone living close to you and anyone we come into contact with.
WORKS IN THE
PARENT TO TRAIN, TEACH, INSTRUCT GOD’S CHILDREN WHOM HE LOANED UNTO THEM. Children not kids, kids are wild goats and you raise goats but train children.

GIVE GOD THANKS
It is important to give God thanks in all things. Every circumstance that we are faced with and every trial is another opportunity for us to see how Great and All Powerful and Loving our Merciful Father is. Remember! He sees and knows all and protects us each day ....So, let us not forget to show our gratitude and Give God Thanks in ALL things...!
Psalms 30: 12 KJV
1 Thessalonians 5:8 KJV

HEAR HIS VOICE
In reference to John 3:16; John 15:13. Had God not sent His son to die for us then He, as God the Father would have been Self-ish, and self-centered.
In reference to John 10:11, 14. God knows His sheep they were chosen in
When the sheep hears
God brought man into this world and everything, which was placed in the man’s mind, came from God. If God did not give man the knowledge of love man would not of known what love is.

PRECEDENT BEING SET
In Numbers 8:17 God was setting a precedent throughout
In reference to Isaiah 43:7, 21. God dwelt in time indefinite and he was and is all joy, love, peace, temperance, justice, mercy, faith and such like. God did not need one created being to make him happy, it is because He is love that he brought what was in him through the process of creation.
If God had not created then He would of ceased to be God, then would he be self-centered, and self-ish because it is His nature to share His love. God the Father brought forth creation and shared himself through His Son Jesus Christ to redeem man.
No man can take the credit to creation as his doing, creation testifies to the power and majestic glory of God The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit formed man, created man to worship and show forth the character of God in the earth.
Created there is both the natural creation process to make man and the spiritual deliverance from sin unto perfect obedience to the law of God, which is the character of God, which is the seal of God. When man has the spiritual deliverance then the glory of God shall shine forth from him as the Holy Spirit of God works in the mind to enlighten the darkened understanding.
Ephesians 2:10; 2 Corinthians 5:17; John 3:3; Exodus 19:5; Deuteronomy 14:2; 26:19; Isaiah 12:22; Psalm 29:11; Hebrews 8:10; 1 Peter 2:9; Revelation21:3; Matthew 24:22, 31; Luke 18:7; Romans 8:33; 2 Timothy 2:10; 1 Peter 1:2; Deuteronomy 7:6; Psalm 4:3; 1 Corinthians 1:26; Ephesians 1:4; James 2:5; 1 Peter 2:10.

TRUTH
Jay this is in support of your post.
The knowledge which the Judical system is using to function with today where did they obtain that knowledge from? where did they obtain the knowledge that a man must not steal, murder, commit adultery? where did the knowledge come from that children must obey there parents?
The entire Christian world will say it is wrong to bow down and worship false images, you must not make graven images, you must not kill, you must not covet, but why is it they will say the Sabbath is non an void.
They will say the law was done away with but my friends where there is no law there is no sin so today man can do all manner of evil and not be penalised because there is no law to condem the the evil. The christian world can not keep nine of the commandments and preclude one which is the SABBATH.
No where in the Bible could one trutfully show that the Sabbath should not be kept yea even today. The Gentiles also kept the Sabbath, all the Apostles kept the Sabbath the BOSS JESUS he was the one to change the Sabbath and he did not are we better than Jesus, and the Apostles through whom Jesu set up the church which is extended down to our time today? I believe not. Read Acts 13:13-14, 27, 42, 43, 44, 45; Acts 16:11-14; Acts 17:1-5; Acts 18:1-5;
Many mix up the Sacrifical law in Galatians with the Ten Commandments law people ought to understand the scriptures and let the Holy Spirit do the interpretation and not men who are filled with the glorification of self. The Sabbath is still binding upon every individual even today.
for discussion on this point, put them on the shout box below and state your views, because this question needs to be discussed step by step with all parties being open and honest.
DISCUSSIONS WELCOME FROM ALL WITH CIVILITY AND CHRISTIAN GROWTH AND GRACES. I bodly say I am a Christian washed and delivered in the blood of JESUS our only saviour and deliver because we are saved by his life and there is no other name under heaven wherby we must be saved.
Some People believe that once you speak about the Commandments then you are not a christian what utter non sense.

TRIALS OF JOB
Many people ask the question was there another person in the bible who passed through the trials which Job did?. My answer is this:
Job's affliction was exclusive while still being inclusive, in every generation the children of God are buffeted and afflicted and they still kept the faith. The Prophet Zachariah was sawn asunder between the proch and the Altar and he kept the faith untill death.
The Prophet Jeremiah was beathen and placed into a cess-pit yet he still kept the faith, Elijah was persecuted and yet he still kept the faith, Apostle Peter was persecuted and was crucified upside down yet he still kept the faith, Apostle Paul was buffeted, beaten, stoned in-prisioned yet he still kept the faith.
The Apostle John was place into a pot of boiling oil yet he still kept the faith, and the millions of Christians in the dark ages who were maimed, butchered cut asunder, placed into arenas with wild animals and were burnt to the stake yet they to kept the faith, and today when christians are buffeted, laughed at, jered at, and isolated and victimised YET WE TO KEEP THE FAITH.
Every child of God has their own separate great test or affliction or persecution to go through while being exclusive they are all inclusive all to the glory of God and the strenghtening of the church. If every fruit tasted alike yet with the same name how odd that will be. so as christians our name differ so does our test of faith to the building of character unto Perfection.

weekly thought from jay
People who have a problem with keeping the Sabbath and the Ten Commandments don't seem to understand that sin is breaking the law 1 John 3:4.
Every sin you can think of, this guy once ask me if he lay with another man which one of the laws would he be breaking, of which I answered, all ten, the bible says the man leaving the natural use of the woman burned in their lust, then what is lust, Rom 7:7 I would have not known lust except the law had said thou shalt not covert, so there is no sin outside of the law but more than that there is only one SIN disobedience.
If GOD says to you, go jump up and down three times spin around five times with your mouth open, you can say this don't make any sense at all, or you may say the Lord would not send me to hell for not doing that, NO! something small like that, like a day, or we can just do the right thing and obey. MAY GOD HELP US.

FEAR THOU NOT
God is saying FEAR not, the reason he is saying fear not is because by us worrying about a situation and being fearful it will increase distress upon the body and bring all type of ailments which will cause us to be paying doctors a large sum of monies.
If something is to happen can we by being fearful stop it from coming to pass I think not, today trust God by faith and ask him to exalt his love in your heart, the person who is fearful is always jumpy, and wondering if, and what next and will be missing out on all the beautiful blessings from God.
Fear is a product of the enemy and it is the enemy that want us to be forever fearful, because sin brings fear, before Adam and Eve sinned they were not fearful they enjoyed the company of their maker, however when the Devil through subtility caused the woman to sin and Adam sinned by choice knowing the consequence because he had no faith that God will provide a next wife for him.
And because of that great deception in the Garden of Eden the Devil brought sin and through sin is the product of fear on the entire human race, many have a wrong concept of God and fear him, many fear a man who is made like them, But our Heavenly Father is working to restore His character in us that we should not fear.

S A C R I F I C E PART TWO
SACRIFICE: this is an act of giving up something one values for the sake of something that is more important.
- Think of the sacrifice of Abraham he left the comfort of his home, family, friends, and his own desires and sacrificed to the cause and call of God. Genesis 12:1. How many of us could truly make such a sacrifice today, yet we want the blessing of Abraham.
- What about Noah he forsook everything and obeyed the call of God to build the Ark. Genesis 6:13-16. How many could do this today amidst a perverse and crooked generation, yet we want to be saved in the ark of safety.
- What about the prophets, Isach, Jacob, Job, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Daniel, and the others, before you think about sacrificing for all other things, think about these patriarch's and their selfless sacrifice.
- Think about the Apostles and the saints who were butchered, deprived, and martyred for the cause of Christ and there sacrifice to him.
S A C R I F I C E PART 1
- Many say when I have a convenient time, or when I am not so tired then will I give to Jesus of my time, talent, mind, money, body, every day living.
- Many say to themselves "today I have to set things in order for my spouse, children, myself, my family, my friends, my boss, my co-workers then will I do something for Jesus". Sad to say the day runs ahead and no time is given to the master and the one who sustains life because without Jesus life in us we will not be able to do anything.
- No time for personal bible study, no time to push forward the cause of Christ that some imprisoned child of God may get hope, encouragement or deliverance from a word spoken, a word written or a word lived out.

faith
faith is a big topic, of which one aspect, is that, true faith, must be based on truth and not error. e.g a man goes to the top of a tall building, with all the faith in the world that he can fly, but can he! no he can not fly, if he proceeds to jump off of that tall building, he would be jumping to his death, why? because a man can not fly without the aid of machines, so this man would be dead because his faith was not based on TRUTH. May GOD help us.

Many times when I would become angry after displaying my fit of anger and rage and many time my sudden out burst, when I have cooled down I will always try to understand what caused me to display anger and was my out burst warranted.
Many times I will find no reason to warrant my outburst of anger and even if there was one because emotions which was uncontrolled stepped in, and anger and rage were displayed unchecked because I was without understanding. And after the outburst came the feeling of shame.
And because of shame an excuse will come to cover the bad behaviour, because I did not want to admit I was wrong and angry, When conversion was granted to me understanding, wisdom, and knowledge also came and as such I am able to make informed decisions and my emotions are controlled, this is the sanctification process, on this pathway of life and serving God we must grow and be increased in Knowledge, Wisdom, Understanding, and Power.
- WORD'S.
- ACTION'S.
- PERCEPTION.
These cause people to be angry.
WORD'S are thoughts voiced or written, making statements to hurt or belittle another person based on your ill feelings, and confused emotions will increase anger.
Before you speak, think:
- Will the words spoken benefit, enlighten, or allow you or the receiver to grow spiritually.
- Admit you have spoken angry hurtful words.
- Do not make excuse for words spoken.
- Accept responsibility for your words spoken and the actions that followed.
- Examine oneself and get a solution.
ACTION'S are the process of doing something to achieve an aim. You need to ask yourself:
- What was done for me to react?
- Was the action manifested justified?
- Think before you act, many times your actions only bring you shame.
- Get a workable solution before you manifest reprehensible behaviour.
Perception:
PERCEPTION this is thoughts and feelings, which are conjured up into some kind of image in one's mind that one thinks to be right. Perception in this case is not reality and when anger is activated based on perception that anger cannot be justified.
Many times persons get angry based on the perception in the mind, perceptions of words, and actions. Many times we misinterpret signals received from others and our immediate reaction is to get angry and withdrawn, but if we take time to examine why we are angry, then we would discover there is no reason to be angry.

RECONCILIATION
We must always seek reconciliation:
Do not suffer resentment to ripen into malice. Do not allow the wound to fester and break out in poisoned words, which taint the minds of those who hear. Do not allow bitter thoughts to continue to fill your mind and his. Go to your brother or sister, and in humility and sincerity talk with him or her about the matter.
Whatever the character of the offense, this does not change the plan that God has made for settlement of misunderstandings and personal injuries. Speaking alone and in the Spirit of Christ to the one who is in fault will often remove the difficulty.
Go to the erring one, with a heart filled with Christ love and sympathy, and seek to adjust the matter. Reason with him or her calmly and quietly, let no angry words escape your lips, speak in a way that will appeal to his or her better judgment.
Remember the words"He which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins:. James 5:20
Take to your brother the remedy that will cure the disease of disaffection. Do your part to help him, for the sake of the peace and unity of the church, feel it a privilege as well as a duty to do this. If he will hear you, you have gained him as a friend.
All heaven is interested in the interview between the one who has been injured and the one who is in error. As the erring one accepts the reproof offered in the love of Christ and acknowledges his wrong, asking forgiveness from God and from his brother, the sunshine of heaven fills the heart.
The controversy is ended; friendship and confidence are restored. The oil of love removes the soreness caused by the wrong. The Spirit of God binds heart to heart, and there is music in heaven over the union brought about.
May we all practice this and be a blessing to every one we may come in contact with.

LOVE PART THREE
Learn to tell people when we hurt by words spoken to us in a harsh, degrading manner.
Learn to speak about our feelings with the intention of seeking help or spreading joy or giving information which will be used in a positive manner.
Do not be ashamed of your situation.
Do not feel so independent that you do not want to ask for help, or share your thoughts and feelings. Independence is sin.
Learn not to volunteer information to people when it is not needed.
Before you give information, think of the information being given and how it may benefit or distress the individual.
Seek to be happy when you are happy, you will also seek to make others happy.
If one does not trust himself, he will not trust others so there will always be a barrier of communication.
Learn to trust so you can communicate.
Learn to uplift others and commend them.
Learn not to speak words of regret, hate, hurt, anger, or condemnation.
I will like us to look at ANGER, because anger stems from regret, feeling unfulfilled, feeling unnoticed, hurtful words, hate, condemnation, feeling as though you have no purpose, and lack of confidence and understanding.
Anger is an emotion which is in every creature of God, what the enemy has done is give us a bad training in the way we deal with anger, by not understanding how to dispense and control anger many persons will continue to have huge problems and these shall increase.
Here is what the Spirit of God taught me while doing this study.
Find the root of your anger, see if it is some past hurt or problem you have never dealt with.
Finding the root of your anger will help you deal with it.
Accept the fact that you are angry.
Do not make excuse for the anger.
Do not keep the anger bottled up and say nothing is wrong.
Direct the anger to the correct source.
Do not unleash your anger on unsuspecting persons.
Find ways to deal with your anger and eradicate it from your life.
In the next and final part of this topic on love we shall look at what causes people to be angry.
until next time may God bless you and remember Character is from within and can never be covered for long, as the true you will always surface unexpectedly so make sure that the character you show is you.

LOVE PART TWO
- I love you but not in love with you, as many married people will say one to the other, and even persons courting.
- I have to look out for my self and think only about me, if every one in the world truly do this what an extremely dark place it will be, even though at present it is dark.
- Regardless of what people say or think I am going to do my own thing, even though I know it may be wrong, I doing it any way.
- I do not feel to go and fellowship any set of people.
- My blood does not take him or her.
And the list for the above can go on and on, however when the Spirit of God transform the mind he also works on the emotion to make the emotion holy and guided by principles embedded in the word of God.
This is what the bible calls the renewing of the mind, "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God". Romans 12:2.
And the law of the Spirit of life will remove the law of sin and death so we will no longer love based on emotion and fitting into a bracket but we will love base upon the principles of the word of God, decisions whether popular or not, liked or disliked will be made based upon principles of the word because the Spirit of God is in control.
Friendships and association will be upon principles which is the word of God and the emotions will not be easily swayed because it is governed by the law of the spirit of life which is in Christ Jesus.
Because God is love and our emotions are now governed by him the emotions which permeates from the love of God in us will be also Godly and Holy, and because of this we will love one another.
And so Hebrews 10:22-25 will take effect in our lives.
1 John 3:14-15 will take effect.
1 John 4:7-13 will take effect.
Acts 17:26, Galatians 3:28, will take effect and be understood.
Love is humility, Patience, Kindness, temperance, Envies not, is not Puffed up, Sufferer's long, does not behave Unseemly, not Easily Provoked, Thinks no evil, Rejoice not in iniquity, Rejoices in the truth, Beareth all things, Believes all things, Hopes all things, Endures all things.
Love never fails, Love never ceases, Love never vanishes away.
Love my friend is selfless, which means it is never self seeking.

LOVE Part 1
Principle.
You may be saying "what does principle have to do with Love?", but a foundation is being laid and do not miss a single point of it my friend.
Principle is a truth or law that is used as a basis for a system of belief.
Belief.
Belief is trust or confidence.
Belief is Faith.
Faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen.
Faith is complete trust in God without a doubt or wavering or being unstable.
How do we Procure Faith?
Romans 10:17 says "then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God".
Therefore, the statement which many people make "I fell in love at first sight" is false.
Love is the living active principle and you can not fall into Love.
Love will always be the divine principle of God, this cannot be changed because love is who God is. When this principle of love is in the mind from it stems emotion, we were all born with emotions of joy, anger, pain, sorrow, etc who governs the emotion is the main factor. The emotion does not govern love it stems from love and so love is the governing factor and dictates the emotion, please keep in mind that God is love.
Emotion.
Emotin is instinctive feeling as distinguished from reasoning.
Instinctive, is based on instinct rather than thought or training.
Because emotion is instinctive feeling and instinctive feeling is based on instinct and instinct is an inborn tendency to behave in a certain way, then many decisions we have made may be wrong. For one to make decisions based on love it should be based on the thought and training of the word of God.
When decisions are made based on the word of God the emotion will fall in line, because it is the Spirit of God making the decision, remember love is the living active principle of God, God is love and when decesion are made they are based on principle rather than feeling because God is in the heart.
Stay tuned for Part Two.
