In the light of eternity, how I feel is inconsequential. I am created for a purpose and if I were to be feel negatively, it would slow down advancement. The only valid time I should feel negative is only when I grow stronger, more resilient and learn a lesson from it. And then move on.
Always move forward, don't let any human pull me back. Don't waste time. Time is short. Don't waste energy. Energy is precious. Don't waste time giving attention to people who already has enough attention. Don't waste time chasing things that have no eternal value. Don't waste time talking about my problems and struggles unless there is a lesson that people can take away from it.
Strive to have peace in the midst of turmoil. It's perspective that gives strength, strength to rise above every circumstance. Yet in the midst of moving forward, slow down only to attend to important things. Important things are not people seeking attention, important things are not dealing with drama, getting involved in negative matters, unless i have a part to play to resolve the matter; not determined by my desire and my perception of ability to solve the matter but to know with that snug assurance in my heart, that God has called me to be involved; that i am truly necessary in order for things to move forward.
A good friend supports. A good friend does not demand from me what I cannot give. A good friend understands my ministry. A good friend prays with me. A good friend is reliable. A good friend gives of himself/herself above his/her own needs. A good friend for me is one who is mature enough to understand, strong enough to take care of trivial matters and even stronger so he/she can work alongside with me in the ministry of serving God.
Just do my part. God will do the rest.
