Sisters Building Sisters

It’s time for us to get it together ladies, being saved don’t mean become stuck up, rude and putting others down, because they haven’t accepted God as their savior yet, or because they aren‘t on your level. Remember, we haven’t always been saved. When we tell people we represent God, that’s what our lifestyle should show .Not just on bible study night and Sunday services. I’m talking about representing 365 days a year. What is going on with all the gossiping and attitudes. None of that is Godly. Those are ways of the world. We as Godly women are suppose to be building one another up. We are suppose to love, respect, uplift, encourage and motivate each other. Grown women rolling their eyes at one another, spreading rumors, rude, disrespectful, unapproachable, don‘t speak when spoken to? But yet you say you serve a mighty God. A God of love, joy, peace and happiness. A provider, healer, deliver and much more . There are people around you that have not excepted God in their life, and you may be the only person they know that is a Christian, and because of your actions they are not sure if they should become one . I know serving God is a personal thing and we shouldn’t determine if we are going to serve God based on others actions, but many do. Some people feel like if you’re acting the way I do, why should I change? Think back before you became saved, if you are, and remember how some people acted that said they served God and their actions said the total opposite. Your thoughts for some people were, why I need to change, they do more and worse then what I do. So let’s remember that we are representing God all the time and people are watching.

When my husband and I send our children off to school, one of the things we always say after prayer is, remember you are representing God and us. So be on your best behavior. Now when we tell people that we serve a mighty God and he’s our father, and our attitudes and actions are totally opposite of what god stands for, who are we really representing? If our children are out in the public acting in a manner that is unacceptable we become disappointed, upset and sometimes angry. So how do u think God feels when his children are acting in a manner that is unacceptable? There are so many women that are going through. Young, middle age and older. When we represent God, lets be on our best behavior at all times. No, there is no perfect person, and we all have our days but lets be mindful of others feelings and, always do a self check. If you know you are in one of those moods, go some where and say a prayer. Don’t damage others with your words or actions ladies.
