The way I treat others is ultimately how I will be treated Ceilon Aspensen, January 7, 2024February 4, 2024 Get the FREE worksheet for this program here. The most important message I picked up from today’s readings overall is the way I treat others is ultimately how I will be treated. My primary take-away from each of the passages was this: Genesis 13 & 14 – When we choose to live dangerously we risk injury and bad fortune. Even so, God still hears our prayers and rescues us if we cry out to him for mercy. Matthew 7 – It is always best to err on the side of mercy, because what we wish on others is ultimately what we will have to endure, ourselves. Psalms 7 – The traps set for me by those who would do me harm will only ensnare them in the end. If I take refuge in God he will protect me from those who plot against me. Proverbs 7 – We should be honest in our most intimate interpersonal relationships at all times. Karma is a bad thing if we aren’t kind and fair dealing. It seems to be one of God’s highest laws that we will be judged as we judge others, and we will be treated as we treat others. This is repeated in umpteen stories throughout the Bible. The message is clear: live the golden rule. That’s what I got out of it. What did you get out of the readings today?
