Snarky? Prickly? Rally Love!

#1MinuteEncouragement Barriers! There are good, natural barriers like a beautiful stately sand dune. We have barriers too, sometimes they are in our heart, like a protective barrier. If someone is very grouchy, we call them “prickly” and we don’t cross over that barrier they put up, we stay away. Got a barrier put up in your heart? Heart check for symptoms that lash out at others with grouchiness, snarky, disrespect, stuck up attitudes, or bitter moods. We put up barriers, prickly emotional barriers to keep people out, we have been hurt and we trust no one to get near our heart, so we isolate ourselves with barriers. Then from the opposite perspective, we are afraid to reach for a beautiful rose, not wanting to get pricked by the thorns. When someone is being prickly with their snarky, irritable attitudes, does this stop us from befriending them? Do we give up too quickly when a person is prickly? Trust God with your heart, He won’t put you in a friendship that will wound your heart beyond repair. He will give you the strength, protection and discernment you need to embrace a rose, without getting pricked by the thorns. Gods got an ocean of love to flow through you, so take down the barriers and let the love of God surge freely. #DigDeeper https://thebridegroomscafe.com/tell-your-heart-to-beat/
