It is so easy to tear down relationships, and it takes a great degree of Christ-likeness to build and maintain them.

We need to speak the truth in love even in our disagreeing on blogs. <BR/>Also, it seems that most articles posted are those that promote this arguing instead of posting things that truly encourage one another.

Most would not use the tones they do on blogs if the people were there in person. Even in our disagreeing on the blogs, we need to speak the truth in love. Also, most articles posted on blogs seem to be those that attract negative attention and start arguments. We need more positive ones like this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20213892.post-1150079429151714642006-06-11T19:30:00.000-07:002006-06-11T19:30:00.000-07:00There are many things I remember about my college ...There are many things I remember about my college days and on the job training. Being a very independent person, asking for help did not come naturally. We had some professors that were kind; some that were impersonal and one that challenged your reason for being there. That is the one I seemed to go to the most. Why? Because I needed the challenge to keep me at my top level of performance. Praise and encouragement were not in her vocabulary. The years went by and I received a very nice award for "Outstanding " work. I received a large number of congratulations from a number of people and I appreciated them all. But, the one that shall forever stay in my heart was from her. A little note in her handwriting simply stating .."I always respected your quest for knowledge and kindness to your fellowman. While you may not have thought I cared what you were doing.....I want you to know I prayed for you daily that God would keep you strong in your heart, faithful in your work and close to Him". And her name was signed. Encouragemet may come in some form we never see or hear. The comfort may come years later. I believe had I known she felt that way, I may not have pushed so hard toward perfection.<BR/>Excellent post, Pastor B.<BR/><BR/>Blessings from the Hill,<BR/>RuthRuthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11410800908419272090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20213892.post-1150067771891524472006-06-11T16:16:00.000-07:002006-06-11T16:16:00.000-07:00Good post.
