When Should I Stop Been A Good Neighbour? by vickybby(m): 1:59pm On Jun 04, 2022
MY MAJOR PROBLEM? I have a very fragile heart so tenderly to hate or hurt anybody especially, those in my neighbourhood. Honestly,has been trying to abide as a faithful disciple through total surrend to His commands. CRUX OF THE MATTER. My close door neighbour enjoys gas cooking cylinder,while mine is wood fire cooking method. On a good day,to my surprised , i caught my neighbour using my wood fire without my permission for commercial purpose[frying groundnut],to maintained a good neighbour managered to control myself. On another occasion,it was her children,honestly,this development didn't go down well with me. Women has remain so smart,somehow she noticed it and decides to approach me jokingly,to leave my fire on for her,on pretext of running out of gas. Hmmmm,this hand shake hs gone to another level. Should i continue keeping mute to my own detriment? Ofcourse we all know hw unfriendly nigerian economy is,considering a bunch of wood fire of 25pcs gose for #800.

Onething I will never do is allow someone take advantage of my kindness......OP tell them to stop using it, don't displease yourself by trying to please someone. I know they will start keeping grudges with you but ignore them. The economy is hard, don't give anybody the chance to make it harder for you.




BTW I wonder how you manage to cook with firewood, it's very stressful. I can't stay close to smoke, I will cry my eyes out.

Chief your question touch me seriously,but my prayers: may God never allow our enemies to locate us dead or alife. To be frank with you,had everything life could afford even the cylinder gas,until they remembered me and that was all. Won't want to remember the past anymore,it's a kind of humilating.

After cooking gather your remaining fire wood, tire it very well and keep where only you can access it. If she needs it she can come and beg you for it, if you want you can give the quantity you can spare to her

Share as much as you can...

"I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive." - Acts 20:35

Yet, because times are hard, reserve some securely for yourself...

"For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not. For I mean not that other men be eased, and ye burdened: But by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may be a supply for their want, that their abundance also may be a supply for your want: that there may be equality" - 2 Corinthians 8:12-14

Forgive, by GOD's grace, past offences...

"Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven." - Matthew 18:21-22

Peace and blessings!
