SOMETHING MEN SHOULD REMEMBER

Banks treat you well when you’re wealthy.
People treat you well when you’re fit and dressed well.
Companies and work environments treat you with respect when you are skilled.
Never hate the game—figure it out.
Nice men are used and shy men are ignored. Weak men are abused and ruthless men tend to be respected.
Remember this:
Every parent wants a strong son. Every child wants a strong father. Every daughter wants a strong brother, and every woman wants a strong husband. Be a man who builds his mind, body, and spirit daily.
Lastly, NEVER underestimate a man who keeps surging forward after being used, abused, and disrespected by those whom he loved…that man will conquer EVERYTHING! I call this “THE LAW OF JESUS.”
Here is an interesting thing when I read the Bible in the Hebrew. Jesus NEVER said you must love everyone. Organized religion tells us that Yeshua commanded us to love everyone, even those who abuse you. In the original Hebrew He said, “Love your ‘reh-ah’ as yourself.” And “REH-AH” does not mean every stranger. The word “reh-ah” means companion, your community, your trusted circle. Translations such as the King James twisted this to say “love everyone” that confused this love into an emotional surrender outside of the community worthy of our love. This shift in language breaks human boundaries, and gives religion control over the direction of God. So, in today’s society if we resist sin and corruption we are told that we lack Godly love. Yeshua NEVER said to love our oppressor. Rather, He directed us to discipline our hearts so that hatred doesn’t rule us. Yeshua spoke about strength and not weakness. Wisdom and not submission. We are to respect our “circle” without surrendering truth. The message of Jesus or Yeshua was NEVER to be naïve but to be righteous and unbreakable.
