Often we need a fresh look or a new look. No, I am not talking about some new clothes or a new hair cut. I am talking about how we see others.
Take some time today to work through verses that God shares with us how we look at the people around us. This is insightful and needed.
Any way. Read on. May God help us be more like Jesus.
Matthew 7:12 NLT
Do to others whatever you would like them to do to you. This is the essence of all that is taught in the law and the prophets.
We know that as the golden rule.
Mark 12:31 NLT
The second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ No other commandment is greater than these
We have lots of neighbors. Not just the people who live next to us.
Philippians 2:3-4 NLT
Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. 4 Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too.
I share that a lot because God reminds me of it. Not always easy to do as we live such busy lives.
Ephesians 4:29 NLT
Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them.
Be careful with what we say. Encourage others.
Ephesians 4:32 NLT
Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you.
Do these rights things instead of the wrong things. It will show people you are serious about following Jesus.
Galatians 5:13 NLT
For you have been called to live in freedom, my brothers and sisters. But don’t use your freedom to satisfy your sinful nature. Instead, use your freedom to serve one another in love.
By meeting the needs of people, serving others, we show what real love, the love of God, looks like.
Get a fresh, new look today!
