Approve things that are excellent
I give approval in my life every day
But do I approve excellence
Or do I approve good?
If I approve of what God approves
That's excellence.
Things like love, trust
Peace, joy, patience
Meekness, Humility
Temperance, Faithfulness.
Or do I approve of intolerance,
Hatred, impatience, lack of loyalty,
Gossip, turmoil, lack of trust
Do I approve by my actions
Those things that God does not approve of
Or
Do I love those who hate me
Do I show grace to those who abuse me
Do I show mercy to those who harm me
We must approve things that are excellent.
