If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives. - Do good anyway.
If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies. - Succeed anyway.
The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow. - Do good anyway.
Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable. - Be honest and frank anyway.
The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest men and women with the smallest minds. - Think big anyway.
People favor underdogs but follow any top dogs. - Fight for a few underdogs anyway.
What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. - Build anyway.
People really need help but may attack you if you do help them. - Help people anyway.
Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth. - Give the world the best you have anyway. You only account to G-d the Father.
When you really think about it ….how can love put you at risk when love cannot fail?
Love has the power to heal whatever life wounds. Regardless of where you find love, sooner or later you will likewise find challenges and even disappointment.
Why would Y'Shua suggest we are to love our enemies? It is because it is this kind of love that separates the sheep from the goats. We are distinguished when we love those who wish us harm. When you choose to love the ones who would bind and injure you … something shifts. Even if your circumstances don't change, you are no longer trapped; you are free.
You cannot control what people say about you or their perception of you or what you say, but you are able to choose your response to them.
Love chooses. Fear reacts.
Love is freedom. Fear is bondage.
Perfect love casts out fear.
Prov. 24:16 says Love always chooses to rise above again.
Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow in every way into Him who is the head, into the Messiah, from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love. Eph. 4:15-16.
