Ah Life

Hey Guys... The other day I was diving into the Bible, and found some really cool passages that I can apply to my life daily. Here there have been some crazy types of people that tend to get on my nerves... God gave me some different verses, and just kept on blessing me with more. I will paraphrase, I will put it in quotes if it is quoted. lol

PROVERBS 17
It is better to have no food at all with peace in a house, than a feast with strife.
-keep peace with those around you, and those you have to live with.

-God is testing me now, making sure my motives are pure.
"He who covers an offense promotes love, but whoever repeats the matter separates close friends." (vs. 9)
-Do everything in love, let things die that you hear. DO NOT SPREAD LIES AND TRUTHS.
"A rebuke impresses a man of discernment more than 100 lashes a fool." (vs. 10)
-Let's just think aobut that for a minute... WOW. God calls us to love the rebuke. Listen to those who know what they are talking about.
"A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity." (vs. 17)
-Love everyone.
