Many Are Easily Offended

It appears to me… At just the “drop of a hat.”

How easy people get offended and “turn their back.”

I go to church and some say “we welcome you as you are.”

But forget all about you when you go out to your car.

As long as your “in the groove” and say “pleasant things.”

You feel some “love” no matter what life may bring.

You get involved with activities of various kinds.

And have discussions with “many different minds.”

But if you say something to

someone that may “offend.”

They “have nothing to do with you.” 

And don’t call you “friend.”

How many believe what scripture teaches

 concerning  “God’s eternal love?”

But rather try to give the other person a “shove.”

What good does it do to tell others  you’re Christ’ example?

When an “offensive” brother is

“kicked around and trampled?”

Isn’t it time to put all of your feelings of “anger” aside?

And ask God to take away all bitter feelings and pride?

To those who’ve received mercy.  We must give it in return.

  Jesus knows our every thought.  And is concerned!

Why not find somebody that you have “brushed away.”

And speak love to him in what you do and say!

Learn what it truly means to live and the power to forgive!

Your life for Christ…  Is what our savior gives!

Seek to restore relationships in those that surround you!

Seeing how God can work through

you just may astound you!

By allowing the goodness of Christ in you to be completed…

Any hard feelings or unforgiveness will be defeated!
