Galatians 5:10 (NKJV)
10 I have confidence in you, in the Lord, that you will have no other mind; but he who troubles you shall bear his judgment, whoever he is.
Confident In You, In The Lord
It was once written “Correction does much, but encouragement does more” I agree with this however believe that correction and encouragement wisely combined, do the most.
Confident In You, In The Lord
When he wrote to the Galatians, Paul devoted a bottle of ink to correcting and reproving his readers for their theological carelessness. But along the way, he sought to encourage them and express his love and confidence towards them. Constant correction tears us down and demoralises our hearts. When we’re the object of nagging, harping, criticism, things only get worse. We change our ways more quickly when surrounded by people who are both honest and uplifting.
Notice Paul doesn’t just say, “I have confidence in you.” He adds an intriguing qualification; “I have confidence in you, in the Lord.” He means, “I have confidence in the Lord that He can work in you what is pleasing to Him.”
Don’t be on people’s backs all the time. Don’t harp and criticise too much. Add a spoonful of sugar. Learn to say, “I have confidence in you, in the Lord
Confident In You, In The Lord
