Do people treat you unfairly? Have you ever wondered why? Well, we live in a fallen world, and we are all filled with sin. Sin affects our relationships, thee way you treat people and the way they treat you. Yet even in sin we have the choice to make a difference. So are you?
Perhaps you need to check this list of do’s and don’ts, and maybe there is a flaw in your spiritual walk.
DO Smile it costs nothing and is always appreciated!
DON'T ignore people even when you don't want to talk, be friendly when some says "Hello"!
DO make people feel important. Make each person feel that they are special!
DON'T Brag! No one likes a person who is full of themselves! Be an honest person!
DO have sense of humor! Laugh and people will laugh with you, cry and you cry alone!

Sit back and close your eyes, and visualize your spiritual pilgrimage, that is growth.
· What is your first memory of God?
· What was the highest time in your relationship with God?
· What was the lowest time?
Now on a piece of paper draw a graph by years since you were born until today, and mark the ups and downs. Do another graph using the same years and chart how you treated people, your family, your friends, people at church, and strangers.
