I sure hope that your May has kicked off to a good start. The heat is settling in quick around our parts. We've kicked off May with watching our softball girls win the District. Next week we start another round of ball. It's so much fun to watch these girls and especially our girl, Mallory. She plays centerfield. We were so proud of both teams that played against each other. They all, hand in hand gathered together as one of our girls prayed for the game and also for one of our young men that was in a horrific car accident and fighting. His name is Kaden if you can think to lift him up to our Lord. I had the opportunity recently to speak to a group of women at a ladies luncheon event at a local church. Oh we had so much fun. I wished I had gotten pictures of the beautiful decorations. We had a TEA PARTY and we each kept the cup that we drank out of it. Isn't she just lovely? Easter has come and gone but we sure have a great time with family. We gather each...
OPINIONS...every one has one...right? Opinions are merely man's interpretations or ideas.
That is all an opinion is. The good thing about listening to someones opinion is that we can take it heart or we can leave it alone. The choice is ours. Something that has been a good rule of thumb to me about heeding the opinions of others in my personal life is WHO the opinion is coming from for starters. It makes a difference to me and a big one at times. If I am dealing with something in my life then I want the opinions of those that has been there. I mean really.....I am not about to ask someone that has NOT been through MENTAL PAUSE what their opinion is on how I should cope just as you better not take my opinion on how to raise boys as all I raised was girls!
The truth is that we want opinions from others as it helps us to deal with the agendas of our life and we want them from people that are wise in that area. May I say something here...Of course I can this is my blog right? Heed the opinions of God first and foremost but in the reality of life heed the opinions of others that has been where you've been or where you are. Listen to their advice...some may be fitting to your current needs and some may not be. Sometimes the opinion of another can save you a lot of heartache, a lot of wasted time and be a great source of strength to you in your time of need. God places people in our lives for reasons and sometimes it's just for a season...and at times He places them there for "Such a time as this"....
We should be very careful about the opinions of others, especially from those that lack in wisdom and knowledge....Taking their opinion could come back to "bite you".
