3 John 1:9 I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first, will not welcome us.
Would you like to be singled out as the reason for someone else being rejected in society? Would you like to be the reason why someone else can’t get anywhere in life?
As Christians we have a role to uphold others in a similar fashion to how Christ did; we should be trying to lift others up and not put them down!
As much as we like to think others are going to listen to us and do what we say, they will not all do so! But when you lift them up, they will be more likely to listen as you act in kindness…
