Imagine that you're creating scenarios that are likely never going to happen and reacting to some figment of your imagination.
Oh, wait. We don't have to imagine that. It's already happening.
You're justifying your position based on some scenario that you are worried about happening that has zero chance of becoming reality ?
Do you always worry about things that you THINK might happen that MIGHT make you look bad?
Do you lay awake at night thinking these things up?
Oh for the Love and Christmas Spirit offered towards one fellowman.
Those who struggle with understanding of those at one moment profess Jesus Christ as the Savior of Mankind yet are slow keep His Commandment to “Love One Another.”
When I heard the talk on “Beware of Pride” by Ezra Taft Benson I understood it for the Holy Ghost had touched my heart and I witness with anguish at my fellow man that lack the love towards those who were not as blessed to know and have felt the love of the Savior.
It also made me aware that one can profess to Love the Lord yet when it is revealed how easy one can feel contempt towards those who are slow in getting with the program.
Instead took insult towards one who most likely never felt the warmth of Lord therefore could not embrace what came naturally to some to believe.
One can believe in the Lord but do they sincerely embrace the Lord spirit
1. 2 Pet. 3: 9, 15
9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
15 And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;
1. 1 Cor. 13: 1-4, 8, 13
1 THOUGH I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
• • •
8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
• • •
13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity

hearing this I feel the soul cries out for peace and love
ceased the bickering, baiting, contending
Until the heart softens and the knee bends it is all for naught
