People do not belong on anyone's potter's Wheel..........

[EDDES]

 You know....for many years now, I have often wondered about what makes people stop talking to each other and stop hanging with each other. I would ponder in my mind what went wrong within some marriages, with some family members and with some friends who have somehow separated and never forgave each other for stuff that happened 100 years ago.

The Word of God is the absolute Will of God. God does lovingly implore us to walk in love towards one another and it even tells us that we all should love each other with the love of God which is absolutely unconditional!!! God also says to forgive each other in His Word. 

If God says it, then that settles it because I believe it.....I should choose to just do it.

Some people do not accept others the way that they are. They just want to change people. They want to change and mold people.

Putting people on my potter's wheel & molding them the way that I think that they should be is wrong & it always promotes trouble.

God gave us all freedom of will and no one should do more than just love people and accept people the way that they are. Everyone is unique.

The truth is that, we all needed a Saviour because we needed Salvation. So, let's take people off of our potter's wheel and just love them up and be a friend to them. Ok?

I forgive people but I cut off toxic people. I wasn't intended to be a door mat. So it isn't that I want to change people I just don't take it lightly when people take advantage of me.

 Well said.

 For years I tried to get along with people whom are always negative and judgemental and I learned that some people are just toxic.

I have decided to stay away from such people. I only spend time with positive folks now.

Well said, I have actually lost a friend because of this and I really don't care now because I have seen why God has removed us from each others lives.

I agree with you and believe everything happens for a reason too and feel it's best to distance myself for those whose intentions aren't the best for themselves or others, but will pray for them and hope they eventually change their ways.  No one should be a door mat for anyone or be taken advantage of especially when they show compassion and kindness, that's not right at all.

   I have never believed that you should try to change some one. Because if you have to change some one then they really arnt some one for you and when you try to change some one its never going to turn out the way you thought.  

    And i have always forgave after a fight or argument But some times you have to cut off those people that arnt good for you and move on to a new place with new people that are good for you.  

      And i have always beleaved that it is ok to have differant opinions and beleafes from other people and that not every one needs to be friends or even family some times for that matter.

That's good n I too have often wondered the same.. know one can change another person only God can do that n it also takes time n God has time on his side... I have been in situations where I was being molded in to someone else's image of what they thought I was to be like well by several people really first my dh, and people from church... Know one ever just reached out to be a true friend just had an agenda many times and when I wasn't willing to jump thou the firey hoops the set before me I was tossed away like garbage!!

So I totally agree I don't try to do Gods job I just try to do what he asks if me pray for those who he has put in my life and work on my own self and let God do what he wants to for others n I should be a support...
