Several yrs. ago, one of my friends, who had owned office bldgs. and played tennis at the ROCC,and had been the most sought-after male at Lamar High Schl. when he was young, told me he would die the next time he had a heart attack, and it would come as he had already had several and only had 17% of his heart working. I witnessed to him and invited him to church. He refused to come because he, "couldn't stand to be around those self-righteous men in green polyester suits who judge and are critical of others." Rick died, and in all probability went to hell for rejecting Christ. And a large part of his rejection of Christ was because of people just like the one who criticized you on your blog. Of course these critical people need to be responded to in love too.

When sandpaper moments come into my life, as they have many times, I often just smile and don't respond. I use the sandpaper moments as learning situations because:
"For we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose."
Romans 8:28

You are sincere in your beliefs and have dedicated your life to serving God and serving others. As He is not here on earth in bodily form, you have become His feet and His hands as you help others. God probably looks at you and says, "Clive I am just crazy about you!"

I found similar rude comments left on a Bible School's site two weeks ago. The devil, old smutty face, will try any way he can to hurt us and the cause of Christ. He walks around as a roaring lion seeking whom he can devour. But we know what will finally happen to the devil.
