Friends-3
Today’s Reading: John 14:6
To say nice things, even if they should be a tough truth is a good way to get along with most people. Almost nobody gets upset when they hear good things about themselves. However, a relationship based on flattery, apart from not lasting long, leads us to live in unreal and illusory situations.

People need us to speak the truth, though at first the truth can hurt them, sooner or later they will realize that true friends are those who speak the truth with a sincere desire to help. Be honest; tell the truth, it does not have to be rude or offensive. Arrogant sincerity, without love, is synonymous with an attitude that puts us in a position of superiority and self-sufficiency.

The truth must be expressed, but with smooth and gentle words, filled with love. Love that doesn’t reproach, love that only suffers with the mistakes and the blunders of our brothers and sisters. The truth must be told; but it is only possible when we live in the truth, when we walk in the truth.

Of course, the truth exists. Jesus is the truth!

Happy Are The Humble

humble
Today’s Reading: Matthew 11:29
What is humility? Well, humility is not lack of effort to progress. It’s not shyness. Humility is not poverty. It’s quite possible that we meet timid or poor people that are extremely proud. It is also possible to meet a rich man who is humble.

Today, when people are concerned with things like power, prestige and status; humility is ridiculed.

Jesus not only taught humility, but also lived it: being God and Lord, never demanded places of honor, nor sought popular applause or made use of its prerogatives to avoid any kind of aggression, offense or distress. To all and everyone he responded with love and kindness. He even came to wash the feet of his disciples.

Humility is the way that relieves our heavy loads. Humility eliminates our so called self-control, our sense of superiority and self-sufficiency, leading to the feet of Christ to accept his invitation. “Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.”
