All of us once had this feeling of " I don't feel like doing anything, or I don't feel like hanging on anymore"
In the past all my relationships were based on just the feel good factor. All along I thought when that someday comes when feelings got stale and stagnant, one should just move on and say good bye to a certain relationship.
Even since I turned a believer I have realized tht the most unreliable 'friend we have been trusting it for so long 'feelings' they are not reliable at all!
I am so thankful tht my dad is not just there for the family because of feelings. There must be many times he don't feel like doing it anymore. When I disappoint him, when my sister let him down, or my mom is not understanding towards him. Dad stayed committed to the family despite of disappointment and unpleasant moments that happened in the past. Dad loves us and he is committed to us no matter how he feels.
I have come to learn about this. To live a victorious life we have to build our lives based on the truth. The truth of being kind, being gracious, loving, having a good attitude in life in all situations. In times when we don't want to be kind to the person who hurt or abuse us, we don't feel like apologizing when we are not even the one in wrong. But based on kindness and the truth of attitude we decide to choose His way.
I have learned to be thankful in all things in life. For the good or bad, they happened for a reason; the exist for a purpose for us to learn from and to mature from it.
The bible says, all things works for good for those who loves him and is called according to his purpose. This take into account even for the people who had wronged us. Eventually it will all happen for good.
Love your enemies; this is true enough, for many times if it's not for some hateful people in our lives, we might not even realize that we can for the fact get tht far.
Be thankful in all things
