A few years back I posted this post: 12 Lessons I've Learned in Life . That was 2009. I didn't write my post last week. Carrie, we are losing steam. Last week's topic was "words of wisdom" so there are my 12 words of wisdom from 7 years back. One, I would reword a bit..He's more than just a fixer; He's a Father- a good good father. #8: It's not my job to fix people...but point them to the Father, who loves them in the midst of their brokenness.
I guess I am still learning to not try to fix people. I see things so black and white in a fuzzy, gray world. And really when some things ARE black and white but someone chooses to live in the gray anyway- all I can do is point to Him, invite them to hear the truth and pray...A LOT. Because in case you weren't aware..prayer makes an incredible difference in the hearts and lives of people. This good Father lets us join in the conversation and His heart is moved with compassion when we pray. My favorite story of this is Abraham. Did you ever check out this old post? Also some 2009 wisdom.
What is a word of wisdom you hold onto that reminds you to live differently day by day?
