I have kind of been taking a blogging break, only because I have been spending so much time "counseling" all of my friends.

It seems I have this incredible knack to be able to talk to and advise people who otherwise would not listen to such advise. My husband tells me it is my purpose or "calling". I'm not sure I believe it but I do know he is right when he says I can say things to others that maybe would not be well received coming from someone else.

My problem is that I take the situation of the person I am helping very seriously. I find myself shouldering the problem as if it were my own. I then become stressed and worried over what is going on with them and if everything is going to be okay.

What I am starting to realize though, with the help of my family and my dear friend Teresa, is I need to pray for God to give me the wisdom to give the right advice and then let him take it from there. I am just God's vessel to minister and counsel to the people in my life. I feel very privileged to be able to do this because I have helped lead many of my friends to church and ultimately to making the choice to accept or recommit their lives to Jesus! What a wonderful thing to be a part of!

So when you think what you say to someone doesn't matter think again and ask God for the wisdom of words and then let him take it from there!
