A hater is som eone who is jealous and envious and
spends all their time trying to make you look small so
they can look tall.
They are very negative people to say the least. Nothing
is ever good enough!
When you make your mark, you will always attract
some haters...
T hat’s why you have to be careful with whom you
share your blessings and your dreams, because
some folk can ’t handle seeing you blessed...
It’s dangerous to be like som ebody else
if God wanted you to be like somebody
else, He would have given you w hat He
gave them! Right?
You never know w hat people have
gone through to get what they have...
The problem I have with haters is
||
-
that they see my glory, but they don’t
know my story...
If the grass looks greener on the other
side o f the fence, you can rest assured
that the water bill is higher there too!
W e’ve all got som e haters am ong us!
Some people envy you because you can:
a) Have a relationship with God
b) Light up a room when you walk in
c) Start your own business
d) Tell a man/woman to hit the curb
( if he/she isn’t about the right thing)
e) you are a strong person and d o n ’t let people run
you over
f) you have a strong & loving marriage and they can’t
get in-between spouses to spoil it
Haters can’t stand to see you happy.
Haters will never want to see you succeed.
Most of our haters are people who are supposed to
be on our side (like some family and friends).
How do you handle your undercover haters?
You can handle these haters by:
1. Knowing who you are & who your true friends
are *(VERY IMPORTANT!!)
2. Having a purpose to your life: Purpose does not mean
having a job. You can have a jo b and still be unfulfilled.
A purpose is having a clear sense o f what God has
called you to be.
Your purpose is not defined by w hat others
think about you.
3. By rem em bering that w hat you have
is by divine prerogative and not human
manipulation.
Fulfill your dreams! You only have
1
one life to live...when it’s your tim e to
leave this earth, you want to be able to
say, ‘I’ve lived my life and fulfilled my
dreams, Now I’m ready to go HOME!
When God gives you favor, you can
tell your haters, ‘D on’t look at me...
Look at who is in charge o f me....
Pass this to all o f your family & friends
who you know' are not hating on you includ­
ing the person who sent it to you.
If you don’t get it back, maybe you called som e­
body out! D on’t worry about it, it’s not your problem , it’s
theirs. Just pray for them, that their life can be as fulfilled
as yours!
Watch out for Haters...BUT most o f all don 9t become
a HATER.
