NO
So many times people misinterpret the word "NO". NO is a very good word. Sometimes when people say NO, to us, we may interpret it as the following: I hate you, You are not worth it, You are stupid, You are not my friend, and sometimes we even think the person who is saying NO is selfish and inconsiderate.
This however is not true. If we view everything as coming from the Lord and we believe that He is the one who is ordering our steps, then this mentality will change. God sometimes says NO to our requests. This does not mean He does not care about us. He is always on our side. It is very dangerous to assume and judge from the outside. This is what the enemy wants he does not want us to be deep. He wants us to be shallow. Let us fight this battle together, I am honestly one of you guys. There is grace available.
On the other hand, when you say NO to people it does not mean that you are insensitive, it does not mean that you do not care, it also does not mean you do not Love. Guilt does not come from the Lord, but conviction comes from the Lord. If you believe that the Lord told you to say NO, Say NO and if you believe the Lord told you to say YES, say YES. It is as simple as that but it always seems hard doesn't it :)
Let your YES, be YES and your NO, be NO.
We are together in this guys, remember, the battle is not ours, but the Lords.
