The Joy of Spirit-Filled Deafness

Tuesday, June 1, 2021

I was speaking to a woman who taught the Bible to children in Sunday school. It was a challenge for her because the congregants all spoke a foreign language. She became aware that many of the people in that church were speaking badly about her. She never bothered to find out what they were saying against her. Instead she kept on serving. Why? She told me, "Why should I bother finding out what they're saying and ruin my blessing." The Lord commands us to, Dwell on what is good. In order to do that we must not dwell on the bad, the gossip, or the impure. If you center your attention on those things you'll lose your focus and your peace. Be careful! For that which you dwell on, you will end up dwelling in. Just as it is written: Finally brethren whatever is true, honest, just and pure and lovely and in good repute, let your mind dwell on those things. Don't ruin your blessing because in the end, the only thing that matters is the good and that which is of Him. rn
