ARE YOU A DEBT COLLECTOR?

Tonight I'd like to pose this question to you, are you a debt collector? This is something that hit my spirit and the revelation that GOD gave behind it is so powerful. When we think about bill/debt collectors, we think of those people that constantly bombard us and annoy us when calls about bills that are past due. At times it seems that they do not even care about our feelings or what we are going through. They just want their money. IIsn' that frustrating at times? Especially when you have a situation where you ccan' take care of the bill?

We as humans become bill collectors when we keep track of everytime someone has done us wrong, everytime someone didn't do what they said they would or everytime someone didnt come through for us in general. Of course we must have discernment when dealing with others because not everyone has our best interest at heart BUT GOD does  andand t us that it is BETTER to give than to recieve and HE also tells that when we do give we must not give to others with the intent to recieve something in return, instead we are too give freely. Think about that. When we hold on to he past or hold on to the wrongs that others did to us we make an hostile environment for ourselves. With this hostile enviroment we becom angry, we become reluctant to do or others and we become reluctant to trust others and sometimes we become reluctant to trust GOD.

It is important that we get to a place in our hearts, mind and life where we are debt FORGIVERS AND FREERS. GOD tells us in HIS word that no matter how many times a person wrongs us we must forgive them. HE also tells us that we who are spiritual should seek to restore those wo have fallen. We must remember that there were times when fell short and didn't come come through for someone. We need forgivesness and if we dont forgive others, GOD wont forgive us. Lets pray and ask GOD to search our hearts and minds and remove anything that is not pleasing to HIM. Let us remember that HIS ways and thoughts are not like ours. Lets ask GOD to help us trust HIM and help u to not lean on our own understanding but yet give us peace that SURPASSES all understanding. I HOPE THAT THIS BLESSES YOU ALL AS IT BLESSED ME. God bless you all.
