His correction can come from the most unlikely places.
One would think that it would always be in private, and from deep, sensitive and mature Christians. Or, perhaps He could only speak to us through The Word or spectacular and interesting messages.
The fact is, often He speaks in the middle of trials and sometimes through those who are insensitive and worse.
If the Soldier of The Cross is eager to follow hard after Him and is praying to know Him, that Soldier will hear His voice, even from the most trying mouth, particularly if you are in ministry.
How available are you?
Tell Him. It takes the sting out of the circumstances and puts the emphasis on taking up The Cross. It's not about the horrid person's arrogance. It's about eternity.
His Way is Love. His correction is an expression of that Love, no matter how it comes.
This is not about accepting nasty, negativity. This is about learning to hear Him, to bring everything to Him in prayer and to move on according to His Word.
If it is from Him, there will be Light.
Look up and move on!
