Thought for Today: Tuesday June 24

We are not hypocritical just because we do not meet a person’s every demand. Would we really be helping them if we met their every demand, no matter how selfish? Instead, we might just be encouraging greater self-centredness on their part; and that is not YHVH’s will. Sometimes love says no, because that is what is best for the other person. If you can fulfil someone’s request however, do so even if it involves sacrifice on your part. The Bible says: “let us not love with words or tongue but with action and in truth” (1 John 3:18)
