#LESSON ONE
Dear friend,
It is always beautiful to see the dawning of a new day regardless of how bad and difficult the times may be. Every new day comes with new experience, and within these experience are lessons for us to learn. Do not dread a day to the point that you were unable to get anything good out from that day if it finally comes. There are certain days we can not run away from, certain things we cannot prevent from happening, we would get into difficult and painful times even if we do not want to, and it would be unrealistic if we believe that everything will always go smoothly.
With that said, they past few weeks has really been not just difficult but challenging for me and my family. But within all of it, I see God's hand, and that hand has lead me into the reality of what Jesus is working out for us. Remember, "our faith is our sight," we may not see it but we believe it. I was able to pen down some lessons I got from all of the happenings, and I'll love to share them with you.
LESSON ONE
1. Always know who you are speaking with.
Every body who came to the house, called or sent in a message almost had the same thing to say, and I believe it was simply because they had some knowledge of who they were talking to. At each point I received a condolence visit or call from a friend, church member or a neighbor, I knew it was not because I got a new job or a new house or a new bride but because I lost someone.
However, within the visit, call or text, some persons had something different to say to me. Just a very few people knew I had all the comfort I needed because I have the God of all comfort (2Corinthians 1:3-4). That group of people had something entirely different to say to me.
In addition to that, knowing who you are talking to also helps shape what you say and how you say it. If a woman is sure she's speaking with her husband, it sure should be different from how she speaks to her younger brother. An employee also speaks differently to his or her boss because of the knowledge of who they are talking to. Do not be ignorant of the person who speak with. If he is your Pastor, speak to him as your Pastor not your pal or room mate. If the is pervert and still your boss speak to him with that full knowledge in mind.
It would be a disaster if we speak to everyone in the same way!!! I hope this helps you become a better person.
