"Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you respond to those things. If you truly want to be Christlike, we ought to be radically different. Instead of retaliating, show love and go the extra mile." Pastor Peter Tan-Chi

Good morning fellow steemians, uloggers & prayer warriors. I just got up and finished my morning prayer and of course I continually prayed for my daughter's complete healing. I hope & pray that she can eat comfortably later. I'm pretty sure that I will not be the one to feed her and be her nurse (help her take/drink her medicines) today because as of this writing she's still asleep. Praise God! :-)❤️

Today I praise & thank God for this timely reminder and a note-to-self as well because I'm reminded to be radical & go the extra mile. With lots of things, yes including wrong/harsh things happened to me, I couldn't help but remember the people responsible and you know what? I thought of retaliating, the very first thing on my list. But when my eyes caught this one, I was convicted to show love and go the extra mile. Like I've said countless times, it is always easier said than done. But as Christians, we ought to be Christ-like and radical. I know and I believe that God is still in the process of smoothing my rough edges. It's painful and uncomfortable and many times, it hurts. But He is my strength and He is merciful & gracious to me that's why I can stand the pain and the long process of God's refining work in me.

I am still a work in progress and I praise God that He is faithful to finish the work He began in me. :-)❤️

Good morning and yes, I'm still using the onscreen keyboard. :-)❤️
