Rise and Fall

In life there are uncertainties and a lot of unpleasent experiences for one to go through. Its easy for one to rise and to fall just by words and also by betrayal of those people around them. What is friendship all about? Is it about hanging out together doing things or chatting? For some it is, but i discovered there is more to that. Being a friend is about understanding , about communicating without fear or prejudice and forgiving one another. I have made alot of friends and lost a lot of friends, but the ones that stay are the ones that believe in you and you believe in them. Its a bond of trust that if you have some beef you talk it over and not going around campaigning or having a bout of paranoia. How bout asking instead of suspecting? Does it sounds familar to you all these? Well, if so then lets all start look into ourselves and examine our faith in God. Why are we so hostile to our enemies when Jesus himself forgave his enemies and even died for their and our sins. We are all made in His image so why dont we start to try to live in His image and redeem ourselves from our sins and try to make the world a better place. Its been a bittersweet Sunday for me but in the end my faith is reaffirmed as i confess my sins and seek salvation.

When anger lingers in our hearts,
It poisons all we think and do;
But faith seeks ways to show God's love
And keeps our spirit strong and true.
