Let nothing terrify you.
Ever have a horrible reaction to something?
You try to stop yourself but you are looking at a psycho in the mirror!?
Anxiety, hysteria, stress.... flares suddenly up.
And you don't know why!?
Lord protect those around us who may negatively experience our crazy unbridled frenzied selves!
Forgive us and show us how to get grounded to You in these times.
These times of behaving like a maniac, spewing anxiety, stress, hysteria!
Lord, protect those vulnerable to our times of being frantic...FRANTIC!
Ever hear someone talking about you behind your back.
Perhaps taking the truth and distorting it?
Perhaps you even thought you were doing a good deed for them!
But they portray you as a fool or weak?
Here's the good news, relax, we all are fools and weak in our own ways.
So we might as well just accept that fact!
However.........
You may want to pull them aside in private and share with them lovingly, but truthfully
how you perceive the situation.
And then let it go.
If that is their truth, if that is their perception of what happened,
no matter what you say it won't change them. Rest in what you know is the truth.
Turn it over to God.
Fear of what others say is want of trust in Me. See yourself as others around you see you, not as you wish to be seen. Walk very humbly with your God. I will set you on high because you have known My name, but it must be a purified you. -God Calling
Know that evil takes partial truths and tries to make them full blown truths.
If what you overheard is partially true, learn from it, especially
if it harps on a weakness you are already aware of.
But don't dwell on it and don't let it get a hold of you.
Look at it, take what you can learn from it, move on. Again..Turn it over to God.
MARRIAGE
Honor those around you, particularly your spouse!
Respect them, revere them, honor them, esteem them, appreciate and prize them, admire and praise them, be devoted to, deeply love, and enjoy them. 1 Peter 3
To demean, neglect, or ridicule our spouse is to trample on God's gift of value and worth.
Lord help our lips only speak to encourage. Just because we think something, doesn't mean we have to speak it. Hurtful words can't be taken back once they have wounded their target. Remember the great value God has placed on your spouse.
