“I do know that when I was younger I had a huge problem of being a people pleaser..I mean if someone wasn’t happy with me or didn’t like me..I would go completely out of my way to make them like me..regardless if I was okay in the midst of it or not..I mean I could and was stood on as a door mat from many in my life..until I got older and understood that my only place to be to please anyone in my life was that of the Lords in my life..Amen..and even now I must catch my self to understand that as the word says but now if I seek the approval of man I should not be a servant to Christ..Galatians 1:10..for we can’t serve two masters..Matthew 6:24..Amen..and if were not careful we compromise our own self worth for someone else’s opinion or their happiness and disregard our own happiness and disregard what Jesus requires and wants from us..Amen..so if you are that person this morning do know that if we within ourselves are not right than we cannot be right with others in our lives..Amen..and first we must pray and seek Gods face for our lives..for our joy..for our happiness..for our peace..for everything..for you see if we have people in our lives that are constantly pulling us down or are negative continually then we must be smart and wise enough to separate ourselves from that..for you see we have to guard ourselves..in every single way..because the enemy comes in many shapes and forms..he uses the most closest things to us at times..but still if we are getting hurt or mistreated by so called friends or people around us..then we remove ourselves from that..Amen!”

“Because words are powerful and they cut sharper than any two edged sword..Hebrews 4:12..and what we are around we will begin to act like..and talk like..and do as they do..and if not careful we ourselves get caught up in how they feel and walk around on glass so to speak to make sure they stay happy..Amen..so understand that people are in your life for a reason..but as well what Jesus thinks of you is the most important..and make sure your getting fed positive things in your life by those people that are around you..Amen..make sure that you are not being stepped on in the midst of a so called relationship or friendship..Amen..for life is way to short for you to not have your own voice..your own opinion..your own freedom..and your own life to live the way the Lord desires..Amen..for life gets heavy when we add extra on that never was meant for us to carry around with us..or for us to ever pick up..Amen..so know your worth and know that the right type of friends and relationships are out there for you..never settle for less in your life..and never let anyone look down on you and your life that you are living..for this life is between you and Jesus..so live it well..living it to please the Lord and Him alone..never compromising your worth..your happiness and or your peace..Amen..for it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi ❤️
