Choose your Measure

“give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, shall they give into your bosom. For with what measure ye mete it shall be measured to you again.” ‭‭S. Luke‬ ‭6:38‬ ‭RV1895‬‬ bible.com/bible/1922/luk.6.38.RV1895

Today’s verse emphasizes that what is given shall be returned in the same amount. However, it isn’t talking about the giving of physical objects such as money. It’s talking about using the same measure of judgment that you use for others to be used for yourself.

It really goes back to the golden rule and you’re decisions will come back to you. If they were good, they will be blessings and if not… then they might CB not be pleasant. So keep this in mind as we go through our daily routines. When encountering a situation where you feel like judging or putting someone down, consider yourself in thatperson's shoes. A little kindness and love might be what is needed. Let’s choose the measure of God’s love. Let’s give it wholeheartedly and receive it gladly.
