"Doing What Is Best for Others"
It could be a lot less stressful for certain people if they will learn that they cannot always please everyone all of the time. As the saying goes, you can please some of the people some of the time, but not all the people all the time. To resign one's self to the fact that not everyone is going to like you no matter what you do for them, is to live life being less stressed and less concerned about what others say. As I have stated before, it does not matter what you do for some people, they are never going to really accept or like you. Some people do not even need a reason for not liking or accepting you, which is often puzzling to some people. Some who are not liked or accepted will want to know the reason why, when in reality, there does not have to be a reason at all. I have seen people hurt and sometimes destroyed because of what someone has said, done, or thought about them. Because life is not fair My children, you are going to run into people such as these, and you will have to learn how to cope with it or be destroyed by those who wish to harm you.
From this day forth My children, learn to be at peace within yourself, and do not let anyone steal your joy. Because you are a child of Mine in CHRIST, you have been endowed with a strength that can help you make it through anything, or be able to deal with anyone in this life. Remember, you do not have to be liked in order to be respected, and more of you need to be mindful of this fact. It is My hope that more of you will be able to rise above the need to be liked as long as you learn to treat everyone fairly and honorably. Some of you have trouble accepting the fact that you cannot please everyone all of the time, because if you could, then you would not be able to say that you treated everyone fairly, because some people deserve more or less discipline than do some others. With so many people wanting different things, not everyone will want what is best for them. Blessed are you who are able to do what is best for others in everything, in and through JESUS CHRIST your Lord and Savior.
AMEN
