I don't know who had that on their profile...but honestly, I don't believe anyone on this earth has any right to claim that they deserve anything. Truth is, if any of us got what we truly deserve, I don't think we would even be alive. That person might be sorry they made a statement like that. Truth is, I don't think any of us would want what we truly deserve...and that's why I thank God for His love and mercy toward us all. :)
That's why my profile mainly contains information regarding my beliefs. I intentionally left my profile void of personal details so that only someone who has spiritual wisdom and discernment would contact me. If anyone contacts me, it will most likely be due to the fact that they looked deeper into my profile...or in other words, because they decided to "focus on the unseen"! (Ahh, so that's where he got the idea for his profile name...lol) :)
Jesus said to judge a tree by it's fruit. So if it produces good fruit most of the time, then it's a good tree...but if it produces bad fruit most of the time, then it's a bad tree. One of the main mistakes made by many people is this: They're constantly sifting/watching everything a person says or does in an attempt to try to locate just "one" problem (or "one" bad fruit). WHY??? So they can have an "excuse" to never give that person a chance...OR...to discredit everything the person says. Anyone who makes a habit of constantly searching for faults in another person's life, is basically proving that they don't trust...which also means they don't love. WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO LOVE AND TRUST SOMEONE??? Loving and trusting another person means CONTINUALLY giving them the benefit of the doubt...and if they do things wrong at any point in the future, then CHOOSE to be merciful by kindly letting them know...and allow them to correct the situation if at all possible. That's what I've tried to do before...sadly, it didn't work because the young lady wouldn't listen to reason...but hey, at least I offered her the chance.
.....(I'm not sure who reads my posts on here, but if the "little Ms. shutterbug" has come across what I said in the above paragraph...No, I wasn't referring to you!...and I might be willing to give you another chance if you're interested...just maybe...but only if you agree not to run completely unexpectedly again. :) lol).....
Oh, I almost forgot to mention the difference between an "excuse" and a "reason".
An "EXCUSE" is a skin of a reason stuffed with a lie!
A "REASON" is nothing "more" and nothing "less" than the truth.
Truth is, nobody should ever be afraid to speak the truth...because the truth sets us free. :) That's one of the main reasons why I tend to be so brutally honest at times.
I deserve nothing. Nothing at all. I certainly don't deserve everything that God has already given me. I'll deserve nothing that He gives me in the future either. So what do I deserve in a man? Nothing. But I pray that God will bless me with what is best for me, even though I don't deserve it.
