“When a wicked person comes, contempt also comes, and along with dishonor, derision. (Proverbs 18:3 CSB)
Do you have people in your life who fill your cup with goodness? These are the individuals who pour compassion, kindness, love, sacrifice, loyalty, generosity, and forgiveness into you. They support and care for you. They check up on you. They make time in your time of need. Like attentive waiters, they observe and notice when you are running low and refill you as needed. They bring the best out of you.
And then there are those who just piss in your cup. They relieve their own needs without any consideration for you. These are the people who contact you only when they have something to brag about, or when they need something from you. They take over your life when it suits them. They belittle, bully, and mock everyone. They exploit others for their own advantage. Do not mistake their acts of disrespect as attentiveness or service.
There are those who fill your life with goodness, and there are those who fill it with contempt, disrespect, and derision. Know the difference.
