Scripture

Today in my blog, I just want to quote scripture.  This was in my reading for today, and I couldn't say anything any better!

" Be agreeable, be sympathetic, be loving, be compassionate, be humble.  That goes for all of you, no exceptions.  No retaliation.  No sharp-tongued sarcasm.  Instead, bless----that's your job, to bless.  You'll be a blessing and also get a blessing.

Whoever wants to embrace life
  and see the day fill up with good,
Here's what you do:
   Say nothing evil or hurtful;
Snub evil and cultivate good;
   run after peace for all you're worth.
God looks on all  this with approval,
   listening and responding well to what He's asked;
But He turns His back
    on those who do evil things."

THE WORD OF THE LORD  (First Peter 3:8-12  the Message Bible)
