Proverbs 11:27
27 1Whoever seeks good finds favor,
but evil comes to one who searches for it.
if I seek in my heart to do good to others, I will find favor from God.
But suppose if I think evil of another person ( it could be of any form, to hurt with a word, even assassinate their character in my heart), that evil comes back to the me who searches for it.
it is a natural principle that God has put in.
I always want favor from God, then why not I seek good of others.
Even forgetting to seek good of others is also a problem, because I may miss finding the favor of God. This may sound like little bit of Old Covenant, because in new covenant I find favor by grace and grace alone.
So in new covenant, I already found favor by Grace of God, now that I already found favor, So because of the favor i received i seek more good for others.
The new covenant compells us to do more (not to gain acceptance/favor), but because I already received it.
May God bless this meditation - Amen
