Luke 6:45 “The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of the heart his mouth speaks.”
My dear friend, told me that one of her coworkers described me as being, “very rude”. I was taken back, I don’t think of myself as “rude”, but that is how I was described. I remember the encounter. I remember being frustrated, even before I entered the store. I didn’t realize aI had been rude, yet looking back I own that. I am embarrassed, I let my personal frustration hurt someone else. That clerk did absolutely nothing but try her best to help me and I (someone that calls herself a Christian) showed her rudeness. I didn’t think I had rudeness in me, I think of myself as a kind loving person, if my friend wouldn’t have pointed this out I still wouldn’t realize it. I’m very thankful she called me out. I will intentionally give that clerk a sincere apology. I wont give her my excuse for why I was frustrated, I will simply tell her that I had no buisness making my problems her problem by being rude to her. It’s easy to be rude to people who are in customer service. I thought I was above this, obviously not!!! Today may the overflow of your heart be kindness and love even when you don’t “Feel it”.
