I totally agree! Very encouraging. I am normally a "giver" but I have had to be led at EVERY angle! You are so right when you say that you can love & support a person from afar. I was feeling a little bad wanting to help a certain person but realized I'm ALWAYS helping...and that person isn't doing anything to help himself. I had to ask God to certainly guide my giving. This is DEFINITELY an area where we MUST be spirit led and ask for the wisdom of God!
ReplyDeleteDonna, I just need to remove my post & place it with yours because you are PREACHIN' the TRUTH girl! You are so right. I'm learning to take a step back from "doing so much" for people that aren't pouring back into me---and that's not a selfish thing to do, but its the CAUTIOUS thing to do! At the end of the day, God has you covered if you are in his will, but you must stand up for yourself as well. If you are always helping, you don't leave any room for a person to help themselves. Just as the saying goes, you have to show "tough love" sometimes, it is certainly RIGHT!
ReplyDeleteBeing led by the spirit is one of THE most important things we could ever do. In doing so, we will never go wrong because God won't allow us to do so! Thanks for commenting Donna, your response means more to me than you know :-)
