When someone you look up to lets you down,
what in the world do you do?
Welcome to Coffee Hour @ Chicklit Power and
Tuesday Trench Truth with Trench Classes United. Grab your coffee and come on
in for a moment of truth.
Recently I
experienced a disappointment as it relates to a very influential person, but
what sickens my heart even more is this person is the most influential in “the
church,” and I know what that can do to the perspective of newcomers.
Why do we
fall so hard when those we have esteemed let us down? Could it be that perhaps
we have put them on a pedestal that no one should be put upon except our God?
Could this be why He tells us to not put our faith in man but in The Son of
Man? Could it be that our pride is wounded for having been so deceived and now
this person becomes just “another wolf in sheep’s clothing”?
Coffee hour
friend, many times when we are let down by those we lifted high, it’s because
we see their error as an extension of ourselves! Instead of focusing on the
problem we need to kneel to the solution and pray our own souls into
transformation as well as the one who has let us down. There truly is no other
way.
On that
note, if you’ve ever been let down by someone you held up high, why don’t you
plan on joining us for the orientation to Living Forgiven, and Forgiving,
because a life lived forgiven is worth the living!
I am so excited
to meet you there!
