You Got Used

Good evening. God will use us when we’re at our furthest distance from Him just to reach someone else. Don’t get it twisted. Being used by God doesn’t necessarily seal the deal on our righteousness. It just means we were perfectly positioned for His purpose at that moment. Righteousness is a daily walk that is often back stepped. Strive to walk upright continuously and watch ministry opportunities come faster than you can respond.

Hard But Doable

Good evening. Unfortunately sometimes you just have to walk away from people. It’s not that you don’t care about them but rather you’re going in two different directions and on two different journeys, and forcing the relationship would be detrimental to you both. If destiny circles you back around, great. If it doesn’t, great. No stressing. Just keep walking.

Say It, Discuss It, Move Forward

Good morning. The other night I described a relationship by saying, “we learned a lot about each other and a lot about our selves from each other, but we’re in a good place.” If there is no mutual growth in a relationship good or bad, then what’s the point? Growth and transformation never take place at surface level. These things are always something/somewhere deeper. If we can’t mutually explore the deep, character shaping things of life that ultimately defines who we are, then we’re really hurting each other? For me, there’s an indescribable feeling in the heart when someone close to me sees something in me (good or bad) that I was either 1) in denial about or wasn’t aware existed or 2) not in the right perspective to see it. Regardless, in those very moments, they contribute to my life and essentially make me better. What’s a relationship that only exists during the high and happy moments when it’s the valleys, the darkest hours, and hurting moments that we need relationships the most?

Authentic relationships allow authentic conversations. No secrecy and total surrendering of emotions.

If we go into a relationship fully guarded and remain guarded, the duration of that relationship will not survive past the realities of life – basically not even existing in the first place.

People matter.

Just Ask

Good evening. It truly saddens me when people choose to manipulate rather than to simply ask for what they want or need of you. This is my #2 pet peeve next to lying. Just keep it real. In the greater scheme of things, we’re here to help each other. Why complicate the Greater plan?
