What will it be infused inside you?

  • “I was a derision to all my people; and their song all the day. He has filled me with bitterness, he has made me drunken with wormwood.” (Lamentations 3.14,15).

Even if everyone around us is mocking and deriding us, this don’t mean that we need to fill ourselves with bitterness, let alone blame Jesus for our wrong choices. We can’t get control of all situation; nevertheless, we can and have to take control over ourselves, our way of venting our feelings and thoughts and, chiefly: our manner of seeing and figuring out things.

People can bring wormwood to us, but it is up to us to decide to opt out this seat of the scornful (Psalms 1.1) or go toward a place where we are very beloved and special, to wit, inside the body of Christ.

Perhaps you love people that don’t partake of this one. However, instead of debasing yourself for the scorn of these ones, cling to the love of Christ for you coming from people that He did specially for you, be elated, manifest this relish in prayer for these people that you love and never give up of biding Christ give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth and, thus, they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will (2Timothy 2.25,26).

Moreover, have a special day in Christ, always remembering: Jesus manifest His love and grace through imperfect vessels. That is to say: even if His message get into you in middle to distortions and noises, focus on the gist of the message, namely, that the Holy Spirit loves you, is close to you and wish to use you to complete and fix this message.
