Listening in silence is not an easy thing to do 😂 I feel as though my thoughts are coming a mile a minute. But I am going to purpose to focus on Him and be intentional on listening for Him.
Shalom Chantell, I used to be like this but I’ve learned to quiet the mind I must first quiet the soul. So I’ve prayed to God to quiet my soul. I no longer have racing thoughts and can lay with him in silence for hours solely fixated on him. I pray he quiets your soul and allow you to have full control over your sound renewed mind. Practicing to listening to understand rather than listening to respond, will fill you with life. 🤍
In our family we say P-B-P which means Pause Breathe Pray. It's both a reminder and instruction on what to do when we are upset. And can also be used in public as code without putting our business out there.
Gdm! Hope all is well When you are comfortable in your own skin, saying no to people, places and things that are not in alignment with who you are and what you want, you may lose some people in your life. We’re not here to please and make others happy. We came into this life to be the greatest version of who we are and then take the actions that move us along our life’s journey, and with kindness we wish others well on their life’s path. This is a profound way to live. Never underestimate the power of solitude. 💕 (Be careful who you let on your ship because some people will sink the whole ship just because they can't be the captain.)
I really appreciate this because i don't really talk much and I've been told my whole life to speak up but I've found myself in a lot of situations where I've been glad that I'd held my tongue and other times where I'd been frustrated that i hadn't been able to say what i wanted or even needed to say - it's a work in progress and I'm really grateful God is helping me through communicating most effectively for the edification of others 9:15 this has literally made me into the goofy person that i am because I've been a ticking bomb for so long that i want different, i want life for myself and others, i want to bring joy in every way possible
The times I have heard God's still, small voice have been when I was alone and praying and away from all distractions.. no kids, no TV, no phone, just me being raw and open and Him waiting for me to take a freaking breath! And it always catches me off guard.. just a tap on the shoulder. Hey, I'm here. 💓
Wow! Affirmation! My mom taught this to me over and over turn thè other cheek. I teach this to my son. He takes its so seriously but obviously if there is danger involved stand your ground- God will speak and you will hear him and follow his lead. But there is times to say something but take it when it comes back. It happened and for a minute or 2 i struggled with the come back, i said God you gonna have to help here. Wow ! did he help! and i wrote a appology that even surprised me. But i had to say what i said because i felt free but it was a battle and also the truth was revealed that i feared the true character of the one who received my raw truth of my thought. I can not build friendships on lies especially my own.
Much blessings for sharing wisdom.Kindly,I would like to listen at least one full verse of God's word in your discussion . Please do so sisters in Christ.
At the moment, whenever i wear a sleeveless top, the person comes to me to let know that i should wear a top with sleeves especially when I want to lift my hands/arms in praise to the Lord. I want to ask why not wear sleeveless tops?? Does it not say in the bible, 'come as you are'?? I know i took a part of the gospel but thats what i remember. I do fellowship at church but me praising God and walking in the word is key. I want the person to leave me alone.

Amen, I struggle with this too but if you keep practicing this principle you will hear Him definitely

I would attempt to listen. But fall asleep or my mind too races. Lord, help me!
Wisdom in the pause! A whole lesson I need to learn. I’ll get there.
To be honest I always struggle to hear God's voice. And whenever I pray I always request his voice to speak to me. O' lord 😭🙏🏽🙏🏽
When You Pause ,you get Wisdom - Christy Wright !!
This is so timely, I'm trying to listen to God more & hear what He has to say to me or for someone else.

Oh my goodness I so get that! The frustration of cooking for kids who don't eat and cleaning just to clean over and over again as a wife and mother..
I'm so guilty🫣Lord help me!!
thank you ladies for sharing🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻
Lysa TerKeurst said to wait 20min before saying anything when you are mad. It's helped me. But it's also a daily project for me.

When you apologize and the person or people refuse to accept the apology and bent on revenge what do you do?
Let go and let God 🙏
God/Jesus destroyed all my Life for many Years with Diseases, and Oprression,
God took away my Women and destroyed my Relationships,
Can you turn the other cheek
