When someone is referred to as a minus it means he’s like the fool who’s always right in his own eyes (Proverbs 12:15). That’s the problem with a minus – he never realizes his state; he is so hard to teach because his eyes are closed to his condition. He can’t keep a friend for long; he can’t keep his family together; he can’t hold down a job. Why? He’s a faultfinder and nobody can please him. When he comes in contact with someone, his presence will reduce or retard that one and stop him from growing beyond where he was before he met him. He is always negative and his influence on others is negative.
The plus, on the other hand, is someone whose presence adds to the Kingdom. He is someone who is creative and has a positive influence on others through the Word of God. His presence influences and affects others positively. When you come in contact with someone who is a plus, he adds to you. Whenever and wherever you meet him, you’ll find him doing something for the Kingdom of God. He always brings increase, he contributes ideas, he helps the job to move on because he is productive. He goes after the biggest challenges and is not afraid of doing the dirty work everyone else has shied away from. He doesn’t run away from responsibility. He knows what’s most important and he goes after it.
This is your profile, because you’re actually a plus. Let people desire to be around you as you put on bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering, forbearance, and above all, love. Don’t ever think of yourself as a minus. See yourself as a plus. God is glad to have you on His team because you are all plus to the Kingdom and there is no minus in you!
