Happy Holidays?
Proverbs 21:2
2 Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, But the Lord weighs the hearts.
Am I Wrong?
Happy Holidays. Have you ever stopped and asked yourself “am I wrong? Am I the problem? None of us ever like to think we are. We are able to justify our actions in our mind no matter how bad they are. Then you have times when your actions aren’t exactly bad, but are they right?
What’s Right?
I am at a cross roads right now. On the one hand I know I am justified in how I feel. There’s no doubt about it, but do I need to be the bigger person, or is that not a good idea for the welfare of my family.
I’ve been to that same place before, and against my better judgement, I chose to try and include everyone only for it to explode in my face, and destroy my family.
Does Family Matter?
Is it necessary to force ourselves to be around people we don’t like because it makes them feel better? That is the question.
I think with the holidays coming up a lot of people are asking themselves the same thing. Living in the south all you hear is “they are family”… I don’t feel the same way about that.
Toxic Bandwagon
Something I hear a lot of now a days is “they are toxic” …insert eye roll. Honestly I think that is a bandwagon people have gotten on to make others look bad, so they feel justified in their choices. I understand that some people truly are toxic but….. I don’t think you feeling convicted in their presence qualifies as toxic.
So what are we supposed to do? We trust in God. Get in that quiet place and allow Him to lead you where to go.
Proverbs 3:5-6 -5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.
***Lord thank you for your direction in my times of need. I ask that you help me to know what the right thing to do is in Your eyes. I want my actions to please You Lord. Let your voice be louder than my feelings. In Jesus name I pray, Amen. ***
