--Definitions--

Have you ever realized that the definition of a word is just a bunch of other words put together? This is true with any and all words, one word describes another and another word describes some other word. So what's the true definition of any word, i mean really.

Well it's funny how life acts like that sometimes. Because of how you dress, how you look, how much money you make, whatever ethnic group you may fall into, wheather your past has been clean or not so much, all these things and so much more are the stuff that people use to define you. It's weird how they can never find the important stuff.

But I've learned that the true definition of ourselves can only be found through God our Creator. God has it all planned out for us but we must grab hold of it. Don't let this world and others try to define who you really are. Don't just let them put you into a some random catogory. And especially do not let them put you down for who you are in Christ and what He has defined you as!!!

PRICE TAGS

Can you put a price tag on love, encouragement, support, or friendship? If the answer is no, which most would say, why is it that we get upset when we do not get it in return when we give it? If you can't put a price on those kind of things, which really are priceless, then shouldn't we evaluate our motives?

Cause if we are giving out our love, encouragement, support, and friendship just to see what we get in return then we really are putting a price tag on those kind of things. Now don't get me wrong, it's wonderful to be loved in return and to have those kind of things expressed to you. But when we can express those things without expecting anything in return we can understand a little of how Christ lived and how He desires for us to walk.

So next time when you encourage someone or support someone and especially when you love someone, do it as unto Christ and do not put a price tag on it. BE BLESSED!!!!
