the things which are not

God has chosen the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things which are. We are still on the topic of one person fixing or correcting another. We don’t do it by “sharpening” with abrasiveness, anger, or arrogance. In the beginning, when God was faced with a completely dark universe, He did not say, “You’re dark.” He did not repeat the negative that was. He said, “Light.” He spoke what was opposite, what was positive. He spoke what was not, in order to bring to nothing what was. Difficult relationships are not made better by telling the person what is wrong with them. Tell them what is right. If you would see the positive increase in their lives, then speak positively over them. Speak blessings over them. Our words have power. Use their power to bless, not curse. ♥
