One phrase that is so hard for us to ask is, “Can You Help Me?” – We don’t want people to see us in a different light. We don’t want to be vulnerable. We’ve been disappointed when we’ve asked for help in our past. We think we are forever indebted to the giver. We think people should just know. Did you know the Bible mentions “ONE ANOTHER” 59 times in the Bible? This only proves that we are not a one-man show or meant to be on an island alone. We were created to thrive in a community where God has placed people to help carry our loads. It is time for you to ask for help and/or time to accept it. There is a blessing there. (I’m newly walking in this myself).
CHALLENGE:
Oh how simple it is to write this (yet I know not as simple to do), but please, this week, ask for help. If someone offers, accept it. There is healing in this. I promise. There is someone out there who will lend a hand.
