You know it's a good idea, to do others as you would like to be done. It doesn't matter who they are, or where they come from.
Sometimes we treat others in ways that we would not put up with. Because we have a certain standard or a certain expectation of what we are use too and what we expect to get. It's all good. But, if we know we don't like or appreciate something. We should know, that others are just as human as we are; and living in the same world. Thinking of themselves just as worthy, if not even more.
Problem is. We're living in a world where there is a multitude of discriminative attitudes. From racism to sexism. The color of your skin in some cases makes all the difference. If you're a man or a woman, rich or poor, healthy or with some sort of disability.
Many treat others with far less respect than they expect to get. As though they have the right. When you deal with people like this. It seems like you're always in a mental fight. Maintaining self respect and dignity becomes priceless. Because of ideas of supremacy some think their discriminative attitude has given them a license.
They treat you less than the rest because they truly believe they are better and know what's best.
But we are not of this class or list. That is; if you're seeking a higher kingdom than this.
In Christ we have new life. There's a wrong and there is a right.
Picture yourself in someone else’s light or darkest night. What would you hope; the other person would do, when all of a sudden it's you? Do you want someone talking to you, the way you do? Do you want someone touching you in places you rather not be? Or taking things away, you love and truly need?
The opposite side of the tracks may be a place, you really can't deal with or even like. Let alone stay. So keep in mind. As long as you're living. There may come a time. When you may experience life, inside someone else’s mine. Or, who knows? You may one day give birth to the same kind.
You may be given another chance to do it all over again. A whole new life where you're the sacrifice and you could really use that character. If for mere laughter, or nothing more than a friend.
At this point. You will know the difference, in what is right or wrong. You will know what is, or is not of Love.
Therefore give all of which you; yourself hope for. Nothing less, though maybe more. From this day forth and as long as you live. At least give, what you expect to receive.
Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. Matthew 7: 12
And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise. Luke 6: 31
If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another. Galatians 5: 25
