Remember

Remember, before you exalt yourself above others. In those times when you speak to others of how far you have come. When you converse with your friends of how far a journey they have yet to travel, before reaching such a height, which you have already attained. Remember those times when you see a long haired man with tatoos who is adorned with several piercings on his body and you choose to avoid him because you have already judged him. Remember that none of us are good enough nor will we ever be able to do anything that will ever come close in all our lives to such a gift that God has freely given us.
Remember, we are Christians because unlike others we know we have failed. We know that God did for us what we could not through our Lord Jesus Christ and that is what gives us our name; Christian. Do you know God? Then you know the Love in which we are all to share and show to others. The Love of God of Jesus Christ connected through what our Father in heaven sent to us on the day of Pentecost. Such a love as to build up relationships so as not to allow the devil to cause division, resentment, broken hearts, tear filled eyes, or prideful perceptions.
Always remember the Grace God has bestowed to His chosen and walk in it. Know that if you want to be exalted then you must be willing to become the lowest as it says in Matthew 22:12,
12 Whoever exalts himself shall be humbled, and whoever humbles himself shall be raised to
honor.
We are to follow Jesus' examples of sitting next to the Samaritan woman and washing the feet of His own disciples. Always remember that God is for you and if God be for you, who can be against you?
