Callin' Names is not Nice



Calling people names really isn't nice, especially if a person is not confident in the person that he or she is.  Take for example, if someone calls a person a 'cheatin meth whore,' this can lead to devastation in that person's life if he or she begins to delve on the past and begins considering that maybe the label really does apply.

However, as long as a person views him or herself through the eyes of God, then it is clear to conclude that the label does not fit.  Maybe a person at one time or another made some poor choices in the past, but the past is the past, it need not stick around during the present or future.

So, keeping all the above said in mind, people should understand that calling names is simply immature, and if spoken to a person who has not came to grasp with the fact that he or she is a prince or princess in the eyes of God, calling names can in fact lead to a person developing a poor self-image about one's self.

We would all be wise to remember that each of us has a past.  Most of these pasts are full of regretted choices, guilt, and shame, but they do not have to dictate who we are today.  Our present time here on this earth does not have to be labeled with mistakes we made years ago, weeks ago, or even yesterday.

And to those of you who can't bite your tongue and feel the need to relinquish immature thoughts on others, just know that you are no better than anyone else.  In fact, you are no better and no less.  You are simply who you make yourself out to be.  Don't make yourself out to be some immature dude who can only feel better about yourself by calling other people names.  Understand that you are loved by many people in this world including the Almighty God and me.  You don't have to bring other people down in order for you to feel good on the inside.  You yourself have many great qualities in you that you should focus on.   All people have good qualities inside of them.  Don't cover them up with negative ones.  Don't make people forget the good side of you by opening your mouth and calling someone a name.  You are too good to act like that.
