1 Peter 4:5 (NKJV) 5 They will give an account to Him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
A man lived hard in this world, he heard of the forgiveness of Jesus and trusted Him with all his heart, many around him could not accept his new freedom from sinful living and began to ridicule him. The man now a prisoner for God, exclaimed, "What you see in my life now is real it comes from above, what you continue to do is fake and gets its life from below, I have found Heaven your are still living for Hell."
For the person never changed by a confrontation with the Creator, they cannot know "the peace that passes all understanding." Philippians 4:7 What we say of others tells what is really in our hearts, God examines the heart, do you despise another, don't, God has plans for that soul as well. We will give an account of our actions to God and He will judge us.
Heavenly Father help us to think on the things that will bless and encourage others, help us to praise and not curse another, help us to exalt those who are living for You. May we be light and not darkness to those around us. Amen
