Have you ever felt like you are trapped, in a stuck place, in a pit due to circumstances or due to other people and their choices, their decisions, things that affect you but are simply beyond your control? I’ve been there. But today, I'm living free!
Years ago, during a time of feeling trapped, helpless, and desperate, I got away by myself seeking to hear God. His words to me were, in essence, “Stop being a victim. Quit focusing on what you cannot change about other people or outward circumstances. Start doing something about the things you can change." (Join me for the rest of this post on Sunday, June 30th at Woman to Woman Ministries, where each Sunday I share a bit of Sunday Soul Food!)
still following,
Nice reminder scripture of who to turn to when I'm having one of my almost panic attack moments when I need to stand firm on some things. Sometimes, I have felt hemmed in or almost bulldozed over with what others want when I'm just not in the same mindset of plans made. Hope you're having a good week. Always enjoy reading your blog.
