With all the praise, honor and glory to my savior Jesus Christ, I ask that you accept these words without judgment or offense.
I pray that you’re not becoming a victim of your circumstances.
Recently I had the privilege of helping someone in what to them seemed a dire situation. For some it may have looked that way and to others it may not have, the problem wasn't that the situation looked hopeless but how the perceived dire situation was being addressed both physically and mentally. This person immediately upon getting the news of this particular situation immediately began to move every bit of their energy to a negative place. They did everything possible not to deal with the situation directly. They didn't pray on it, didn't ask for help from anyone, and didn’t seek any counsel from anyone. What they did do, was internalize it, cry about it, get angry and created an atmosphere of tension that affected everyone that was directly connected to this person.
So I say to you when something isn't going the way it's supposed to or you get bad news or someone attempts to introduce clouds on your sunny day. Don't immediately react negatively, think before you respond and deal with it directly. One thing I've learned in life is this; it's not what happens to you in your life that defines you but how you deal with it.
By the way for all you young adults, if you’re raising a child or children and they watch (and they will see) how you react to things in life GUESS WHA!!!! They are gonna do the same thing when they grow up, so not only are you becoming a victim of your own circumstances your children are too... Stop the cycle break the chain...
It's in Jesus name I say this prayer to you,
AMEN
