Day 4: Proverbial Girl

SAY WHAT?

Can God Trust Me?

BREAKDOWN: Who's on your team? Our life is like a team and we are the team captain. We have the opportunity to manage our team, and that includes the people you encounter every day–your parents, siblings, friends, classmates, and yes, even your teachers. God blesses us with different types of relationships that He trusts us to handle well. Even when people are hurtful or annoying, like little brothers or sisters, He expects us to handle them with love and with kindness.

Now ask yourself this question, "Am I helping or hurting my team?" It's easy to help the team when you feel appreciated and valued, but that task can be a bit more challenging when the team hurts us. Jesus is such a great example. God trusted Him with a great assignment, and Christ showed the greatest love to people who didn't love Him back. He was able to do this because He trusted God.

"Her husband can trust her." Trust is the key to this wise proverb. The way you respond to the world around you shows how you can be trusted in it and with the people in it. God can trust her because He knows she can trust Him to protect her in every situation, even painful relationships.

A Proverbial Girl can be trusted by God to properly manage relationships that He gives her. She ensures that everyone feels appreciated and valued, just as God the Father makes us feel. And as God can trust you with the relationships you have, He will trust to give you more relationships to both manage well and cherish forever.

HI GOD, IT'S ME!
I want t o be someone you can trust, so teach me to trust that you will not put me in any relationship that won't ultimately help me to grow.

Show me how to identify the people you want in my life and how to manage them properly, even when I fee l mismanaged. In Jesus' name, Amen.

LIVE IT OUT:
What relationship in your life challenges you the most? How might that challenge help you to grow in love?

I THANK YOU...

Today I have this IMMENSE gratitude towards people whom I have known for a season and whom have now either removed themselves from my life with ill intentions or whom has accepted my way of ending our season. I must say I never thought that some friendship doors that I had to close were laying so heavily on my heart and it was holding me back. I do feel FREE and I am moving forward at a pace that is surprising me, ALL GLORY TO GOD! I have such gratitude towards those people who have moved on for whatever reason and I am so filled with JOY this morning that my soul cannot contain it and I want to speak a blessing over each person whom I have had the honor of knowing but who has now moved on, I pray a blessing of GREAT things to come in your life and I PRAY THAT GOD WILL SHOW YOU MIGHTY THINGS AND THAT YOU WILL STAY CLOSE TO JESUS, IN JESUS NAME,MAY YOU LATTER BE GREATER THAN YOUR FORMER, IN JESUS NAME, AMEN! Just a small ENCOURAGEMENT for those out there who is still holding onto to...

No one is always busy...

Such truth in this picture. I saw this picture message on a page I follow on Facebook and it made me think and reflect and I shared it on my page but I didn't elaborate at the time because I was still filled with negative emotions. Then this morning a friend of mine shared it on her page and these are my thoughts about this and I am referring to friendships/relationships with family and just relationships in general. So please allow me to express myself.. What is most difficult to comprehend is that we allow people to have so much space in our lives and they give so little of their time to us...It hurts immensely when you know how committed you are to certain friendships/relationships and you get absolutely the bare minimum and that fact is what is making me walk away from many. Zainonesha had this to say about it " So true...then one has to settle with lame excuses as if our lives are depending on it. Be Honest I would say" Yes I understand that we are all in dif...

Thought for the day...

When someone shares something with you in confidence don't go jumping on their issues' band wagon, don't make their issue yours, respect their issue in the way it is presented to you don't go making up your own stories because in the end the person who shared with you has made peace with it and you who has now made it your issue is just showing that you are not that "mature" to deal with the information given, examine your own heart and deal with your issue accordingly. We are all different and we deal with things differently and work through things differently so let us respect the differences, doesn't make my way right and your way wrong. It is what it is
