I was on an elevator with my wife. I was as pleasant as spring sunshine and singing praise. A few people get on. A guy about my height was among those that entered. I say God bless you. I'm looking at him straight in the eyes and ask if he's ok, he didn't seem to be. I get, "I'm not in the mood." with a a stare that could kill. At that, I could have responded in one of two ways ~ stay quiet and let his mood and attitude dictate the rest of the elevator ride and show the people who heard me praising God that I was afraid of him, or continue to praise God and love on this angry man and verbally bless him in spite of what he said and did. Well, I most certainly did the latter. Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. I love all people, and I felt bad that the guy was in a funk but that will never stop me from being who I am. I am a Christian, a Son of the Most High God! And I am certainly not afraid to to do what I did. God bless.
