Yikes, sometimes it is what it is. And sometimes you ought not to even hang out or work in a particular location right? Just sayin'.
For God gave us a spirit not of stupidity, fear, vanity, folly or futility. Hey, sometimes there's a fear that's real healthy to obtain. i.e., Fear of God (respectful awe). His Spirit is smart -- with a first name, Holy.Choose wisely. "Love.. it does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful.."
This is a portrait of Jesus! "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails." 1 Cor 13:4-8
Blessed are those who pray not demanding their own way, for they intentionally won't get in the way ..of the Spirit's last days biblical work among us.
Do you try to do God’s will for your life stubbornly your own way or with meekness His way.. with his timing, tone and tact in the strength and wisdom that He gives to you? Please know that and victory come via repentance, faith and simply walking close following Christ. Can't buy it! KnowGod.org .. and around the world make Him known.
“For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control” 2 Timothy 1:7
Q: Does your real estate, off-duty-time or business environment around you periodically or constantly call for some adjustment, some attentive quick adaptation, some vigilance, or flexibility? Lord, we need Your insight, discernment and wisdom.
Do only what's right and smart with excellence. "The new environment dictates two rules: first, everything happens faster; second, anything that can be done will be done, if not by you, then by someone else, somewhere." ~ Andy Grove
Chin up, look up, eyes open, awake, obedient and wise. “So if you’re serious about living this new resurrection life with Christ, act like it. Pursue the things over which Christ presides. Don’t shuffle along, eyes to the ground, absorbed with the things right in front of you. Look up, and be alert to what is goin' on around Christ—that’s where the action is. See things from his perspective..” Col. 3:1-2
Request: Lord, please give me wisdom today where you've planted me, or where you're sending me to make an impact. Use me. Help me to be flexible, aware with keenness of mind, faithful, growing, fruitful, spiritually-adjustable so as not to get in Your way, and not to get in the way of any healthy Christian churches doing your will, Your way, for Your glory.
Would you Meditate Upon Paul's Bible Words: "I know how to live on almost nothing or with everything. I have learned the secret of living in every situation, whether it is with a full stomach or empty, with plenty or little. For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength." Phil. 4:12-13
See Psalm 23:1-6, 119:1-10; Acts 8:26-40; 1 John 2:15-17
