Sometimes we need to be comforted, other times we need to be confronted. When we confront others about their failures, we must make sure that we are seeking their best. We have to take a risk that might lead to other healing or alienation. When we do confront people about their problems, we must do so with humility & love & trust the situation to God. If we do this God will work things out according to his perfect will.
Anyone has something to give: time, talents, finances, or just a listening ear. The way that we give & the amount that we give will show our true spiritual condition. It will also determine how much comes back to us from God. When we know what God has called us to do, we will know what we need to do. If we humble ourselves & trust God to help us His Holy Spirit will transform our lives with love & patience. When God asks us to live a certain way, He provides the power we need to succeed.
We have been gifted in ways that makes us necessary to others. Others have been gifted in ways that make them necessary to us. Some of us have special gifts for teaching others about God. Others of us may have the gift of caring for hurting people. Whatever gifts we might have, they are important for the emotional & spiritual growth to others.
Since God has a purpose for each of us it is important that we strive to know Him better through prayer & meditation on His Word. As we seek Him, He will show us what our gifts are & how we can use them to help others. As we share our gifts & receive the benefits of other people's gifts we will find the body of Christ growing stronger & healthier.
Believe that God wants to be God in your life. He wants to be your protection. He wants to be your security. He wants to be the first make your call when trouble comes your way. He wants to be the one that you first trust in a look to keep you safe. And if you do that, He will never never let you down.
He can handle all the dangers that surround you. So no matter how terrifying things around you seem to get, trust God He will always be faithful. He will never be out doing something else when you need help. He will never be out doing something else when you need help. He will be right there to deliver you from any problem, any catastrophe, any kind of distraction.
