Spiritual Exchange Rates by (me!) ~topps
exactly when did i realize? comprehend? i don't remember the when.. i do know the what:
any time people meet.. any people, any time, from you and the cashier, to you and your spouse, to you and your friend, to you and your enemies, you and a stranger
any time two people meet, there is always 100% of the time a spiritual exchange that takes place; and each individual either leaves that encounter/visit in one of 3 states
encouraged; feeling better than before
neutral; not better or worse, but about the same
discouraged; feels worse than before the encounter/visit
***
i have learned to pay attention to these spiritual exchanges.. to do my best to make sure people feel better/encouraged.. neutral as second place.. but
i have learned also, that when someone is down, and needs/searches for encouragement
if you are not conscientious, they can accidentally bring you down, vs. you lifting them up.
do i hear an amen...
