E112-An Ugly Gallon of Paint Costs The Same Amount As A Beautiful One
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
“A gallon of an ugly color of paint costs the same amount as a beautiful one.”
This concept is something to keep in mind when you have the choice of being kind (beautiful) or unkind (ugly).
Behavior is learned and chosen. Choose beautiful behavior because it reveals Love and is much more fun.
The next time you are in a paint store choosing a beautiful color, look at a color that you feel is repulsive and notice the price. Most likely, the colors that you feel are beautiful and ugly are being sold at the same price. Choosing which color you want to buy at the paint store is your decision.
The same decision is yours regarding whether or not you choose to be kind or unkind to others.
Will you choose to portray yourself as a beautiful color of paint to others with your kindness?
Galatians 5:22-26
But the fruit of the Spirit is Love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.
