James 4:4 Unfaithful creatures! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
Some people just seem to be poison fairies, no matter how a person would like to help them, they always bring bitterness and discouragement with them. They really do need help, but the help they want is on their terms and always to feed there own needs. It seems so often that they are in a cycle; this not only brings hurt to themselves but also all those that offer to help them. The result is that they just continue through life tainting and poisoning all those who come into contact with them, and the older they get the worse it gets until they are alone and blame everyone but themselves for the situation that they are in.
The only way that people can really change is to have a heart transplant, to take their old heart and change it for a new one, the heart of Jesus Christ. To do this they also need to realise through their attitude they are in danger, because their attitude is such that they will only hear what they want to hear, and if they do not like what they hear they will lash out in anger. So sometimes it is just better to leave them on their journey until they realise that they are their own enemy and an enemy of God. In their heart no love abounds, and because no love is found, they have no relationship with God.
Be encouraged today to be careful of befriending people who will hurt you.
David
Point to ponder: be aware of strangers, they are not all friends.
Question to consider: Are you wary of people who can hurt you?
