A different attitude by Joyce Meyer

Joyce Meyer just hugged him and told him I loved him with all of my heart. I don’t know why it’s so hard for people to love. I think the reason is because they never had parents that showed them love. And when you do it, it’s a highlight of the day. When I go to the airports anymore, that’s a hectic place. No one likes to go through security. I made up my mind several years ago as I watched how people treated those people — and maybe I was kind of guilty myself because we resent our privacy being invaded — I made my mind up that I was going to have a different attitude.  The first thing I said was, “how are you doing today?”  you’d be amazed how those people that are looking down will look up and say, “thank you.” “you’re doing a good job. I’m so pleased to meet you.” it’s easy for me to love people who love me, but I have a nature that if you’re a little sharp with me, I can be just as sharp back or more so. But the lord for the last few years has challenged me: when people are sharp to you, let that be a challenge to turn them around.  Say it; I think it’s important.

Joyce Meyer Online: I was just thinking about 1 Corinthians 13 because I believe love is much more than a word; it actually has facets. It’s almost like a diamond; you turn it one way, you see one thing. You turn it another way, you see another thing. So 1 Corinthians 13 tells us that love can be seen in different things, and the first, I call it facet of love is patience. So in the world today people are so impatient with one another.

Joyce Meyer Ministries – I mean, if you just barely get over in somebody’s lane accidentally when driving, you can just get a “blah-blah-blah,” and the words are just… And I’m like, “excuse me, I just made a little mistake.” I say all the time that we’re going to need more than a bumper sticker and a cross hanging around our neck and some kind of a fancy rhinestone Jesus pin to impress the world; they want to see fruit.
