Have you ever just woke up and said to yourself "I'm gonna be grouchy today." God didn't make us to be grouchy people. He wants us to be loving and caring as he is to us.
Colossians 3:12-14
Since God chose you to be the holy people whom he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. You must make allowance for each other's faults and forgive the person who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others. And the most important piece of clothing you must wear is love. Love is what binds us all together in perfect harmony.
Love is the greatest thing of all. You must wake up, even if your not feeling it, and love love love. Like the verse says love is a "piece of clothing you must wear." We must put on love every morning. Do something for someone else. Don't be selfish and do things that only please you.
Romans 8:8
That's why those who are still under the control of their sinful nature can never please God.
Selfishness is a sin. Therefore if your sinning you cannot please God. You must think though the eyes of Jesus! No one likes someone who is selfish. You must do what you know not what you feel. You can't control how you feel but you can control how you act. So what it comes down to is Ignore your feelings. Be nice to your family! Be selfless as Jesus was.
The cross means more to me now more than it ever has in my whole life. Why you ask? Because I GET IT! I understand what Jesus went through, why he died, and that it should have been me up there. Jesus was the most important man alive. We should all try to be like him. You have to wake up and smell the coffee. God is real! There will be judgment when you die. Do you really want to be separated for all eternity away from God in the fiery pits of hell? Turn away from your sins now. It's not too late. God is a very forgiving God. He loves you and wants to help you! Love with all your heart soul and mind! You have nothing if you don't have love.
So remember, when you wake up dress yourself with love and God will help you the rest of the way.
