kindness

My inspiration to write this blog is from this bible verse:Proverbs 19;20-23: 20 Hear counsel,and receive instruction,that thou may be wise in thy end. 21 There are many devices in a man's heart;nevertheless the counsel of the Lord,that shall stand. 22 The desire of a man is his kindness: and a poor man is better than a liar. 23 The fear of the Lord tendeth to life: and he that hath it shall abide satisified; he shall not be visited with evil. My view on this bible verse is this: There's limits on your outward appearance,but in this time of trials and tribulation it helps you to build your character and become a much stronger person. This will also help you to improve your inner beauty so it can shine from the inside out and with that said it won't matter what your outer appearance is for which it is only temporary. Basically, you need to take certain steps in order to change all of these imperfections that you may have about yourself. You need to grow to love and accept yourself as you are, none of us our perfect, we're only human. So, stop being so hard on yourself and give yourself a break for your doing the best that you possibly can. Although the guidance of the Lord will not always protect you from harm in this life but no matter what, he will always be with us from now until forever because he loves and cares about us that much. It breaks his heart seeing you all go through pain,angst,heartbreak,etc. He doesn't want us to suffer even though some of us feel that our whole life is falling apart. Just do yourselves a favor and put all of your trust in the Lord and everything will work out just fine. Cast those worries on to him. Anyway, we're getting off track here. Let me just ask you all this: What steps are you taking to improve yourselves and your relationship with GOD? The reason I'm asking this is because of my own experience with pain and anger and I've suffered and it hasn't been fun but in the end it's all completely worth it,just trust me on this. There are days when you feel like you just want to die,but these feelings truly make you stronger. A lot of days I wake up with no hope,no nothing. But then I think of GOD and I'm like wow, your life truly doesn't need to be this difficult and this lonely, so stop being in self-loathing and self-pity and just grin and bear it and after you do this you feel a whole lot stronger than you did a day ago,a month ago,etc. There's so much that you need to be thankful for in life. Like a house,a family that loves you,good friends,good memories,but most importantly you have GOD and he has so much to offer you if you just stop and think about why your acting certain ways and about certain things. Stop being completely hopeless and broken, it's really not worth it. The easiest way that you can change everyone's lives forever is remembering the word, A.R.K. Acts of Random Kindness. It's really so simple to do. Like for example,babysitting,petsitting,visiting a sick friend or family member,and praying. The power of prayer works,it truly does. It may take some time,but it will be so worth it in the end. Please just keep all that I've said on here in mind. Take the time to stop and smell the roses. Just slow down and remember all the beauty there truly is in this world. Something like a simple sun set,the first bloom of spring,the first sunny warm day of the summer,the feel of water on your body,hugs,holding hands,the feel of sand between your toes, all of this stuff. Just take time out of your busy lives to enjoy all of these little things that GOD has made just for you. All of this is beautiful,breath taking,mesmerizing,heck even relaxing. Just sit back and watch what miracles can happen to every single thing around you. May God bless you all always and forever, amen!
