Today’s Story

Love is a Many Splintered Thing

With the annual Spring Ball right around the corner, Tiffany’s dreaming of being crowned Queen, Monica’s scheming to make it happen, and Tom’s trying to be redeeming and be the best husband and father he can be in this difficult situation.

 

How about you…

Do you ever pursue your own agenda and try to “make it happen” all on your own?  Or do you ever find yourself with people who are selfish in that way and wonder how you can be a redemptive influence in their lives?

 

Check this out…

In the Biblical book of wisdom known as Proverbs, we find these wise words in chapter 3:

 

Trust in the LORD with all your heart
       and lean not on your own understanding;

 in all your ways acknowledge him,
       and he will make your paths straight.

So, if you really want something or to do something or to “make something happen”, just remember that God wants us to trust Him with everything in us and to acknowledge Him in every area of our lives.  Once we’ve done that, He will show us the way we should go.

 

At the same time, if you know someone who doesn’t see the value in trusting and acknowledging the Lord (like Tom with Monica and Tiffany), this Proverb is a good one for you to think about too.  God knows you care about those people, and He shares your desire to see them make good decisions based on a relationship with Him.  So, if you can really trust God with those people, not your own understanding, and if you can Acknowledge God and His power, authority and Lordship in your relationships, He will show you the right way to go the right words to say the right boundaries to set up in those relationships to be the living witness you want to be to them.
