Romans 12:14-21

February 25

Back to the book!  If we looked at every other human being as a precious, precisely created, child of God, planned with a purpose by Him and formed by His very hands, we would treat others a lot differently. When we take issue with individuals we should tell God about it. Chances are, He will point out something equally offensive in us! Yikes. 

So, here comes the rest of the list to add to these seven we memorized Tuesday.

Love for real, don't fake it. 

Run from evil, cherish what is good.  

Be a good friend, be 2nd. 

Don't burn out, rest.  

Be ready to serve happily. 

Don't quit, pray hard.  

Help Christians through hospitality.

Today's simplified version of the actual Scripture to follow.

Bless your enemies, no cursing.

Laugh and shed tears with friends.

Get along, don't be stuck up. 

Make friends with nobodies, don't be the great somebody.

Don't hit back, discover beauty in everyone.

Get along.

Don't get even. Let God judge.

If your enemy is hungry feed him. 

Don't let evil get the best of you, get the best of evil by doing good!

"Bless your enemies; no cursing under your breath. Laugh with your happy friends when they're happy; share tears when they're down.Get along with each other; don't be stuck up. Make friends with nobodies; don't be the great somebody.  Don't hit back; discover beauty in everyone.  If you've got it in your, get along with everybody.  Don't insist on getting even; that's not for you to do, 'I'll do the judging,' says God. 'I'll take care of it.'  Our Scriptures tell us that if you see your enemy hungry, go buy that person lunch, or if he's thirsty get him a drink.  Your generosity will surprise him with goodness.  Don't let evil get the best of you; get the best of evil by doing good."
