When people who have absolutely NO clue what it's like to have NO family or help when you battle extreme and deadly circumstances seem to be the most judgmental when people ask for help, I have a big issue with this. God revealed to me again how I have wasted WAY too much time, energy, love, sacrifice, investing into the wrong type of people for many years. I am nothing but a loyal, giving, loving person because I know what it's like to be in need and not have anyone. I know what it's like to go through hell and wonder if God is real and if anyone cares. I know God is real because He always reveals truth in every circumstance. In every single circumstance God reveals truth, it just takes time. My biggest pet peeve in this life is when people talk about people behind their back. If you ever hear or you think you know a situation and you judge before actually sitting and speaking with that person then you are doing everyone a disservice. You ruin relationships current and future. You plant seeds of failure in those people. Some people want to point out what they think everyone else is doing wrong with out really seeking God, truth in love, and actually finding out what the truth really is and looking in their own backyard. When people come to me and tell me a need, even if I cant help them I dont just say, oh I will pray. No I first think, can I help this person, if yes how and if I cant who do I know that can help? I will find that person help, I will set up what I can and then I will follow through and check on them. I follow John 3:17 - and even though I may not have much I will do what I can with what I have because that is what God calls us to do. We cant do everything, but we all can do something. Shame on those whose mouths are bigger than their hearts, and work more than their hands.
The crucial test to save any relationship including friendship and marriage
Do you know what your love language is? Focus on the Family has made it their mission to help marriages in ways not many others have found solid ground. Having been frustrated in long term relationships and then in my own marriage we sought out answers as to why we don't FEEL loved for years. Through counseling years ago, research and learning tools in our marriage we were able to pin point key reasons why we didnt show each other the love the way we interpret and need to be loved. After taking The test I found out my two love languages are Acts of Service and Quality Time. Acts of Service Can vacuuming the floors really be an expression of love? Absolutely! Anything you do to ease the burden of responsibilities weighing on an "Acts of Service" person will speak volumes. The words he or she most want to hear: "Let me do that for you." Laziness, broken commitments, and making more work for them tell speakers of this language their feelings don't ma...
