1 Thessalonians 5:14 NASB "We urge you, brothers, admonish the unruly, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with everyone."I was there once, maybe you were too! Today's Word speaks to how we should treat others, something to keep in mind as we encounter each other! I was given the opportunity to train a new co-worker. He struggled with every little job I gave him, even after showing him how to do it more than once. I could have recommended that he be let go but instead I remembered my first days on the job. How I too struggled to learn the basics, and get proficient at the job. As we sat at lunch, we talked, and he shared how much he needed the job, how he felt unsure of himself and that he would try better. By the end of the week, he had learned the job and was very good at it. Let's not be so quick to dismiss others but treat them as we want to be treated, cause we were there once! peace, tom
