When life throws you something you weren’t expecting, it’s always a good idea to get some help!
Sometimes those helpers can do no more than just listen to whatever it is you are struggling with. But, they can also have some wisdom – especially if they have also been through something similar.
Our initial reaction is something we really don’t have much say about. It’s mostly from who we are.
For example, when disaster strikes my wife is simply brilliant She isn’t fazed at all! Later on, she will reflect…and maybe cry over what happened early.
Me? Well, I crumble first! Like a chocolate tea pot.
It’s mostly how I’m made up – but I’m also brilliant later on.
I wonder who you’re more like?
Anyway, if you, like me, know that dealing with disasters is not your strong suit, then it’s best to seek help sooner rather than later. I know, from past experience, that I’m not all that good at praying off the bat. But, I am pretty good at asking others to pray instead. And that means more people are praying into whatever has goner wrong. And, that, is no bad thing!
Prayer is great. Helpers are great. So, get some helpers to pray! Then, they can check on you afterwards too.
Just a thought…
