Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:
Through spiritual righteousness you can escape the penalty of sin, which is death and separation from God. Make every effort to do good and be good in every aspect of living and being, and draw near to the Lord always. You have been given the power of free will to choose your destiny.
Romans 8:1-4 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh, that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

How about you give them to Me and I take charge of those situations. Why don’t you begin to use your belief for other things and you’ll begin to see a change happen. Serve someone, encourage someone, give to something. Take the focus off of yourself and on to someone else.
Psalm 55:22 “Cast your burden on the Lord, and He will sustain you; He will never allow the righteous to be moved.” Robin Robinson Bohlin

When you begin to grasp the greatness of Me in you, only then will you walk in the authority that I have given you. You will shine like a light in the darkness, because it’s not you they will see but it will be My Glory shining like a beacon on you. You will become a lighthouse to draw people to Me.
1 John 1:5 “This is the promise we heard from Christ and are passing on to you: God is light, pure light; there’s not a trace of darkness in Him.” Pam Jackson

You don't get the benefit of seeing what went wrong so that the problem will not be done again. The one who cleans it up gets the benefit of learning from the mistake. And that is how they learn wisdom. You repeat the same mistake over and over because there is not enough light on the whole situation to realize what you are doing wrong. You have established boundaries wrongly. Now your gifting does not make room for you instead it limits you.
Romans 12:3 "For I say by the favor being given to me, to every one being among you, to not be high-minded above what you must think; but to think to be of a sound mind; to each as God portioned a measure of belief." Bev Robinson
January 21, 2013. (Reposted) You are at a critical point in your life. Where you are right now physically is the result of past decisions you or others have made. Very important assessments lie in front of you. As in times past, you have the choice to accept or deny opportunities set before you. Seek Me first. Search for wise counsel. Strengthen yourself deeper into My word. Consider fasting with proper humility for the fast approaching times ahead of you. Know that testing will come your way at a rapid pace. Prepare your heart and mind wholeheartedly. Satan is about to test you in surreal areas. My Spirit will guide you at every junction.

There are larger circles, medium circles and smaller circles. Some connect through overlapping, others connect by simply touching. There is a repetitive pattern reproduced over and over again that can be discerned by close observation. The Lord says, "My body on the earth is an interconnecting and supernatural organism. The 5-fold ministry is vital to work as a distribution system for My love to flow throughout. Each and every believer has been gifted to participate in disseminating the Gospel to every corner of the earth. Find your place and function so you may change the world. I am in and with you."
Ephesians 4:15-16 "But being truthful in love, we should grow in Him in all things, which is the head — Christ Jesus; from Whom all the body being fitted together, and being instructed by every ligament of supply, according to energy in measure of each one part, the growth of the body to produce for itself to the construction of itself in love."
