The grizzly bear is the meanest animal in the forest. It can end the life of any other creature with one swipe of its paw. There is one animal the grizzly bear will not attack. He has even allowed this animal to eat with him, although it is his adversary.
The animal I am talking about is the skunk. The grizzly bear does not like the skunk, but he has decided it is better to coexist with him than to create a stink. Sometimes it is better to learn how to get along with the crab in your life than fight and make your situation even worse.
If you are working with a crab or working for one, it is better to coexist with the difficult person than to quit your job. Many people become irritated by the crab they work with and, in a moment of frustration, quit their jobs. But they are hurting themselves more than they are hurting the crab. It is better to coexist than quit.
God has a purpose for the crab in your life. That’s why He assigned you a seat to him. He is using that crab to teach you some things. One of those things is how to love crabs! It’s easy to love the lovely, but Jesus wants us to love our enemies.
