EXTRA
“In the past you have encouraged many people; you have strengthened those who were weak. Your words have supported those who were falling; you encouraged those with shaky knees. But now when trouble strikes, you lose heart. You are terrified when it touches you. Job 4:3-5 NLT
Be the strength of yourself...!
Be careful not to give people what you, yourself can not take. Just like a chef cannot dish out food she cooked without having a test of it.
Same thing happens when we give people advice to guide them in times of trouble. Don't throw out advice for that person alone, give yourself that advice too, because you'll still need same when the time comes. Nobody prays for evil, but everyone prepares for evil, because evil will surely come.
One good thing about those advices we throw out to people, is this, they'll be your strength in the days of evil. One of the persons you advised, will remind you what you said when s/he was in your shoes.
We are not saying you shouldn't give people counsel when they're in trouble, not at all! All we are saying is as you're someone's strength in times of trouble, you should also be the strength of yourself in times of trouble too.
Let Us Pray 🙏🙏
