Power Thought – I am difficult to offend

Sharing a Power Thought for Sunday – "I am Difficult to Offend." 

Joyce begins by asking, Why give control of your day to other people? She explains that, 

"Rudeness, quick tempers, and holding grudges seem to be very common today.  People don't realize they are playing right into the devil's hands when they allow these negative and poisonous emotions to rule them." 

She goes on to share the example of Becca who,

"…is making progress growing in Christ when suddenly something happens at her church that offends her. Becca had hopes of being chosen to sing in the choir but for some reason she got passed over. Satan takes advantage of the situation and fills her mind all kinds of thoughts that are not even true. Becca begins to focus on what she imagines to be an attack of rejection, and she receives it as a personal attack instead of simply trusting God.  Sadly this scenario is repeated over and over in the world today. Sometimes I think we have more people in the world who are angry and offended than those who are not. 

Satan is fishing all the time hoping to catch someone in his trap. Don't take his bait! Start …. saying,

'I am difficult to offend.'"

Something to chew on. Hope you enjoy these and find them as challenging as I have. Happy Sunday!

  1. so true. so simple. but so incredibly difficult. a constant prayer that I forget to pray. I’m looking forward to having trying the catch phrase.
