Some people have ill feelings towards their neighbors. If my neighbor, who could be any one against me, I sure wish that they would confront me about it and stop hiding. If I have done any wrong to my neighbor, I wish they would let me know. Maybe I have done something wrong to them and do not know that I have done them wrong.
With me, it seems that women are the trouble most of the time. They are always trying to get something started. They are always easy dropping somehow on telephones and gossiping. There is power in the tongue, and evil being spoken against you can make your life hard with others. When a lie is spoken against you, it may still kindness that you could have from others, and lies can kill and make your life miserable if you let it. The Bible said to love thy neighbor as thyself (ST.Matthew 19:19) Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor, and thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbor's. All of these things are of the Ten Commandments. People break them all everyday. With words, we can still and kill. We have the power to curse and to bless with words and in the things that we say. We break God's commandments more ways than one.
When I try to clean up my yard and mow the grass, I find trash that has been thrown into my ditch. I get tired of picking up nasty garbage. Sometimes I do not pick it up until I am ready. If I pick it up, they will throw something else into my ditch again. I do not know who is doing it. You see, your neighbor do not have to be living beside you. Your neighbor could be someone just riding through your neighborhood. One day I argued and asked my next-door neighbor who was throwing trash into our ditches. She said she did not know. The next day, there was a bottle and some brown leaves in a plastic bag threw into my ditch.
Are they saying they are throwing garbage into my ditch neatly? People do not care and can be very cruel. I think that is why people are having such a hard time in the world. Love has grown cold and people do not bless and love one another. God made good commandments for us to go by, and people only want what is evil. So, what do we expect? We are going to have a hard time not listening to God. I pray that God will have mercy on those that try to serve the Lord and bless them. Sometimes it is hard to do right when you are constantly being tired of being tried and tested. It can also make you have ill feelings towards your neighbor if you give in. You will become just like the person doing you wrong and there will always be confusion.
