Devotional 8/08/20

08.08.20 | Love | by Rev. Norman Thomas Jr.

    When God, your parents, your boss, or a close friend have given you very clear guidelines and parameters as to what needs to be done, and you consistently decide to do otherwise, it is foolish to expect them to have your back. In fact, it is disrespectful to assume that someone is supposed to cover you when you clearly didn't care enough about them to do what you were asked to do. Stop complaining that God or people let you down when you blatantly refuse to follow directions. There are times when God or people will have mercy on you, but when that mercy runs out, you're simply getting what was coming to you anyway. Don't get it twisted, it's not that much loyalty in the world. Do what you know is right and you won't have to worry whether someone has your back. God bless!
