PENnED

The horse apparently understands it is being helped. Sometimes humans do not have the same commendable instincts–they think you’re there to put them down. So they try to knock you down with a beastly kick.

And some Christians are no different. When they see you not having the same bright red color–‘the color of the righteous’–they conclude you have the ‘devil’s color’: blue. Yes, even if you’re not ‘blue’ at all and your only motive is to bring the light of truth to dispel the darkness of lies.

Today, I read 1 Thessalonians 5 and I wondered how I might apply verse 11 and not be misunderstood: “Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.”
