We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Some are childishly anxious to know their friend's opinion of them, and if it contain the smallest element of dissent or censure, they regard him as an enemy forthwith. Surely we are not popes, and do not wish our hearers to regard us as infallible! We have known men become quite enraged at a perfectly fair and reasonable remark, and regard an honest friend as an opponent who delighted to find fault; this misrepresentation on the one side has soon produced heat on the other, and strife ensued. How much better is gentle forbearance! You must be able to bear criticism, or you are not fit to be at the head of a congregation; and you must let the critic go without reckoning him among your deadly foes, or you will prove yourself a mere weakling.

C.H. Spurgeon

Rules for life: 1. Eagerly start the day’s main work. 2. Do not murmur at your busyness or the shortness of time, but buy up the time all around. 3. Never exaggerate duties by seeming to suffer under the load, but treat all responsibilities as liberty and gladness. 4. Never call attention to crowded work or trivial experiences. 5. Before confrontation or censure, obtain from God a real love for the one at fault. Know the facts; be generous in your judgment. Otherwise, how ineffective, how unintelligible or perhaps provocative your well-intended censure may be. 6. Do not believe everything you hear; do not spread gossip. 7. Do not seek praise, gratitude, respect, or regard for past service. 8. Avoid complaining when your advice or opinion is not consulted, or having been consulted, set aside. 9. Never allow yourself to be placed in favorable contrast with anyone. 10. Do not press conversations to your own needs and concerns. 11. Seek no favors, nor sympathies; do not ask for tenderness, but receive what comes. 12. Bear the blame; do not share or transfer it. 13. Give thanks when credit for your own work or ideas is given to another.
