"Serving other people can be thankless and discouraging, especially if the people you are trying to help are doing nothing but treating you as if you're a piece of pizza that's been sitting under a bed with some decomposing socks for 5 weeks."
This is probably my favorite part of today's devotional because the imagery is so powerful! In all seriousness however, it does make a good point. "Loving our neighbor like ourselves (leviticus 19:18, luke 10:27)" is a whole lot easier if we are appreciated for our efforts. Remember that "our neighbors" are everyone, not just people who are nice to us. Ask God to show you how to love those who hurt you the most.....thery're the ones who need it most.
Enjoy....the next installment won't be for a few days :-(.
