One evening while I was driving home from work. A yellow school bus stopped in front of me. As usual, I expected the students sitting in the backrow would make a funny face at me. To my surprise this time, the students behaved very well. They gave me a smile and this smile just triggered some of my old memories......
I used to take school bus also when I was in primary school. I was one of the black sheep who enjoyed bullying from the window at people walked pass by and I would laughed really hard when I made people angry. If I ever had a chance, I want to apologize to the people that I hurt and I would say thank you to the student that gave me a smile.
Jesus said, “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another” (John 13:34).
So, it is obvious that we should not bully others. But we can’t stop people from bullying us. Here are the steps to make ourselves “Bully-Proof”.
1. Ask myself what we have done wrong.
You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye (Matthew 7:5).
2. Be confident about ourselves. Please know that we are all unique and precious.
“And yet, O Lord, you are our Father. We are the clay, and you are the potter. We all are formed by your hand.” (Isaiah 64:8)
So we can confidently say, “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me?” (Hebrews 13:6)
3. Realize that you may have misinterpreted the other person's words.
- He or she may be distracted
- He or she may be busy
- He or she may be going through a personal crisis
- He or she may be sick or exhausted.
4. Pray when you feel irritated about someone.
- Pray for the other person's needs.
- Pray that God will help you forgive.
- Pray that God will help you love him or her.
One day as I was coming back from school (on the bus , there were these group of girls that always used make up and constantly staring into mirrors. A new girl from the block had just moved into the neighborhood and had no seat to sit in. The only spot left was by the group of girls. I thought to myself... would she get harassed or embarrassed because she doesn't have any make up product? But I couldn't do anything to help because I already had someone sitting next to me. As soon as the bus drove away from school, I could hear the girls constantly picking on her. Talking about her clothes, hair, face and all the things that were "wrong" with her, yet she didn't seem bothered by it, until finally she couldn't take it anymore and got off of the 1st bus stop even though hers was the second to last stop. Coincidentally the 1st stop was also my stop, and that's when I began to question her. After hearing her long and depressing story, I finally decided to end her pain and brought it up to the main office which the bullying ended, and after that incident I had made a new friend.
