DON'T TAKE IT PERSONAL

Oooohhh I was just sitting here reflecting upon some things, when the SPIRIT OF THE LORD spoke some things so clearly to me... There are some of you who have TRIED to be there for someone(s) during their time of need. You have REACHED out to them NUMEROUS times, PRAYED for them DAILY, and have done WHATEVER possible to let them know you are there and you care. However, they haven't seemed to respond to any of your gestures, or seem to be too busy, (or whatever you may be THINKING/FEELING is going on); leaving you feeling HELPLESS and maybe even REJECTED!

Well the SPIRIT OF THE LORD spoke this to me, and led me to share this:

"BELOVED, DO NOT TAKE IT PERSONAL WHEN YOU'VE DONE ALL YOU KNOW HOW TO DO, BUT SEEM TO BE GETTING NO WHERE. YOU DON'T ALWAYS UNDERSTAND THE FULL EXTENT OF A PERSON'S PAIN, EVEN IF YOU HAVE EXPERIENCED SOMETHING SIMILAR; BECAUSE NO TWO SITUATIONS ARE EVER EXACTLY THE SAME. BESIDES, EVERYONE REACTS TO THINGS DIFFERENTLY. ONLY I, AND THE ONE EXPERIENCING THE PAIN, TRULY KNOWS THE EXTENT OF IT. SOMETIMES PEOPLE ARE SO DEEPLY WOUNDED, AND SO TIGHTLY WRAPPED UP IN, AND PARALYZED BY THEIR OWN TURMOIL, THAT EVEN THOUGH THEY MAY SEEM TO BE IGNORING OR REJECTING YOU, THEY TRULY ARE NOT! SOMETIMES THEY JUST NEED TIME. TIME ALONE WITH ME. TIME TO ALLOW ME TO RESTORE, REJUVENATE, AND REFRESH THEIR WEARY BODIES, SOULS & SPIRITS. TIME TO REFOCUS, REGROUP, RECUPERATE, & REORGANIZE SOME THINGS IN THEIR LIVES. YOU ARE SO USED TO PEOPLE COMING TO YOU WHEN THEY ARE IN NEED OF ADVICE, SUPPORT, COUNSEL, OR WHATEVER THE NEED MAY BE, THAT WHEN THEY SEEM TO SHUT DOWN, YOU TAKE IT PERSONALLY. IT'S NOT! I HAVE NOT ORDAINED YOU TO TAKE ON THE WEIGHT OF THE ENTIRE WORLD. I'VE ALREADY SENT MY SON TO DO THAT. I HAVEN'T CALLED YOU TO "HELP" EVERYONE. NOT EVEN THOSE IN YOUR "CIRCLE" DO I EXPECT YOU TO BE ABLE TO ASSIST AT ALL TIMES. THERE ARE TIMES WHEN I NEED TO GET A PERSON ALONE. THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT CAN ONLY BE WORKED OUT BETWEEN ME AND THAT PERSON. THERE ARE TIMES WHEN ALL I SIMPLY NEED YOU TO DO IS PRAY AND TRUST ME. I HEAR YOUR CRIES... I KNOW YOUR HEART, AND HOW TRULY SINCERE YOU ARE. STOP TAKING EVERYTHING TO HEART. NOT EVERYTHING IS ABOUT "YOU" BELOVED. SOMETIMES I NEED "YOU" AND EVERYONE ELSE OUT OF THE WAY, SO I CAN DO WHAT ONLY I CAN DO. TRUST ME TO TAKE CARE OF THOSE WHOM YOU LOVE. I LOVE THEM MORE THAN EVEN YOU DO, AND I AM MORE THAN ABLE. TRUST ME!" Selah...
