The Feebleminded

 1Thess 5:14
…comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, and be patient toward all men.
There are those around us that don’t have the ability to make good judgment. They may have been born with a disability, or they may have a lack of education and training to make good decisions. The feebleminded can easily be confused and disoriented. They often need someone to help guide them in making a good decision. It is easy to lose patience with someone who does not understand things that are common sense to most people. It is our duty and responsibility to help and support those who struggle with mental illness or depression, and give them the guidance they need to do what is needed. Patience is a virtue that does not always come easy for most people, especially those who don’t understand the nature of disability orders. The concept of equity, to give everyone the opportunity to be what God wants them to be is demonstrated in our love and patience to help all men regardless of their human weakness, or position in life. Follow that which is good and put aside your biases and reach out to those who need your help.

Unruly Spirit


1 Thess. 5:14  Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.
There is no excuse for being rude. Universal courtesy among all decent people is to be polite and be respectful of others. Being rude is not only unacceptable, but especially to anyone who names Christ as their Lord and Savior. As Christians, we are the mouth piece of Christ, to the less fortunate ones in life we are to show empathy and understanding. There are those in life that are born with learning disabilities or physical abnormalities and lack the ability to function as most human beings. Through Christ, we should be the first to show kindness and refrain from making unruly remarks. The fruits of the Spirit are the manifestation of a person born again of God. Let God work through us to show the world that God is love and is patient toward all men.
