Saying is not the same as Being or Doing

We live in a world that thinks just "saying" and "pretending" is good enough it's the same as if we did it.

Narcissists think feelings are facts and our world is dominated by selfish entitled people now, basing everything they do and believe on how they feel.

If someone corrects them because they are wrong, they follow their bad feelings into the conclusion that their "enemy", that is the one who corrects, is an evil person, merely because they feel badly they were not perfect.

Even the slightest correction sends the narcissist into a tail spin, unable to bring themselves out until they can abuse the one who legitimately corrected them.

Revenge and domination rules the heart of the one who desires to be superior to others. Sadly, these people are never at peace, always on the defensive and walk about with their thumbs in their suspenders waiting for the next, as they see correction, attack.

We might want to avoid these people, but we don't have to hate them. It is better to see their continual insecurity, that helps us not to hate them, they are miserable inside when they are not elevated above everyone else.

Matthew 5:43-45 "…43 You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.…"

Proverbs 12:1-2 "1 Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, But he who hates reproof is stupid. 2 A good man will obtain favor from the LORD, But He will condemn a man who devises evil.…"
