Good Morning! Proverbs Day 29: Prov 29:25 Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe. One of my BIGGEST PROBLEM and CHARACTER DEFECTS most my life was worrying what other people thought of me. It was actually a FEAR! And I still have that fear to an extent today and may be some of you can relate. After all we are a people who want to make sure we look good, make sure that our appearance is good, so that when others see us, they will think good things. The problem with this is I found I used to put off this false facade like everything in life was wonderful and all was good. The problem was things may not have been so good. I remember at certain times in my addiction I faked being Happy and there are times today I still do that! You see there are times today I worry so much about what others will think that I don't really tell them what is going on really in my life. I want to make out like everything is good when it is not. You see it is this fear of what Man might think that keeps alot of us getting the help we need with things. Be it Spiritual, Mental or Physical. This fear of man keeps us in a type of denial that says "Just keep up a good appearance and no one will know that you are hurting inside, or that things aren't going all that great! I don't know about you, but I still do that today. I put off like all is good in my life and I can handle this. But the truth is, I'm not always good. I have problems be it Spiritual or Physical and when I say physical that can also include not only sickness, but monetary and mental. And when I say mental, I mean doing Stupid things lol! The point I am trying to make today is we put so much stock in presenting ourselves to man as The Good Christian! That we forget we have problems and we hide them so no one will see. But like I said yesterday God knows whats going on in your heart, He knows whats going on in your life. You can hide nothing from Him. And He will send people in your life to help. The only thing is we have to do is break through that fear of man and what they will think to get that help. So today don't worry about what Man will Think! Trust in God! He does want you to be safe. But we can't be safe if we are hiding all the things that are wrong. We can't get through all the Hurts, Habits and Hangups in our lives if we are hiding them because we Fear Man and what he might think. Today just be who you are in Jesus Christ! And HEY! If you are hurting tell someone. If you need help Humble yourself and ask for it. And if life is good today, share it with someone. But let us not worry about what they might think. Cause you never know! They might just tell you they are in the same boat. And you can help each other get to shore! HABD!
