FINDING BALANCE AMONG PEOPLE’S PROBLEMS ~Sandy Warner

When surrounded in the midst of many people with problems, determine to stay where I have called you. Precious one, the world is full of many children all growing up into My stature. Each and every level has its own trials and sufferings that produce character and good fruit when coming into My image.



You can not carry all their problems and if you try, it will derail you on your own journey. I have not called you to be their source, be watchful of those who lean and drain life from you. Do your part by remaining simple when sharing the gifts I give to you. Learn how to balance the boundaries I have set for your life; be loving but firm with those who resist them. Teach them to lean on Me as their Source. And learn how to be a helping hand by dispatching the problems to the body who are to do the work of ministry. Many hands make light the work.



Eph 4:12 AMP

His intention was the perfecting and the full equipping of the saints (His consecrated people), [that they should do] the work of ministering toward building up Christ's body (the church).

Thank you Editor, I feel the Lord talking to me about this very issue through this post. I am to the point where I am very overwhelmed with a certain friend.

Take it to heart, Lori. This word just came in this morning while I was also making a difficult decision.

when setting boundaries dont just take away from the person but replace what your taking away from that person with something else thats positive in another way .Say you cant be there for them this way but youll be there for them this other way
