All Up In Their Faces!!

Christian singles need to be in peoples' faces!

Whether we are talking about family members, platonic friends, romantic partners, co-workers or others we care about, we have to be willing to go beyond the call of duty to be helpful.

• When it comes to bringing people back from the brink of self-destruction, we have to learn to not take no for an answer
• When it comes to loving the most unlovable among us, we have to be stubborn and love them anyhow
• When it comes to refusing to give up on someone who has given up on themselves, we have to repeatedly give them a reason to want to live
• When it comes to expressing Godly love to someone for whom that genuine kind of love is the furthest thing from their mind and heart, we have to love them unconditionally as God has done for us. (Thank God that He stayed all up in our faces!!)
• When it comes to being the ONLY true friend that someone may have, we have to be willing to stand alone for the well-being of that friend

When you have done all you can do, do some more. When you have reached the end of your rope, reach beyond the break. When worldly wisdom says you have done more than enough, look to Godly wisdom to help you keep doing what God wants you to do. When it seems like the only thing left to do is to retreat and let things run their course, resolve to chart a new course for that person in need.

When we love like we should, it should not be about our convenience nor is it about what makes sense to us. There is too much pain, bitterness, depression and defeat out there for us to fall back on "Oh well, at least I have tried." Even when those we try to help pushes us away (for the umpteenth millionth time), for their sakes, get back up all in their face!
