Proverbial Girl: Wisdom, Values, and Being FabulousSample
SAY WHAT?
Can God Trust Me?
BREAKDOWN: Who’s on your team? Our life is like a team and we are the team captain. We have the opportunity to manage our team, and that includes the people you encounter every day–your parents, siblings, friends, classmates, and yes, even your teachers. God blesses us with different types of relationships that He trusts us to handle well. Even when people are hurtful or annoying, like little brothers or sisters, He expects us to handle them with love and with kindness.
Now ask yourself this question, “Am I helping or hurting my team?” It’s easy to help the team when you feel appreciated and valued, but that task can be a bit more challenging when the team hurts us. Jesus is such a great example. God trusted Him with a great assignment, and Christ showed the greatest love to people who didn’t love Him back. He was able to do this because He trusted God.
“Her husband can trust her.” Trust is the key to this wise proverb. The way you respond to the world around you shows how you can be trusted in it and with the people in it. God can trust her because He knows she can trust Him to protect her in every situation, even painful relationships.
A Proverbial Girl can be trusted by God to properly manage relationships that He gives her. She ensures that everyone feels appreciated and valued, just as God the Father makes us feel. And as God can trust you with the relationships you have, He will trust to give you more relationships to both manage well and cherish forever.
HI GOD, IT’S ME!
I want to be someone you can trust, so teach me to trust that you will not put me in any relationship that won’t ultimately help me to grow.
Show me how to identify the people you want in my life and how to manage them properly, even when I feel mismanaged. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
