I love people. They are, by far, God’s most interesting creations. My love for people is strange though. I love personality types and understanding them. Last year, I had an intense work relationship with a personality type that is opposite my own. The conflict led me to my prayer closet quite often.
God began to speak to me about using this bad situation as an opportunity to grow instead of belaboring how hard it was to work with this person. Therefore, I wrote a one-page confession using the person’s initials and said it every day for 10 months.
Around the 10th month, God completely delivered me from the situation and I rejoiced at my freedom. Here’s what’s interesting: I had memorized my positive confession about that co-worker so much, that by the time God removed me from the work relationship, it didn’t matter anymore. I no longer had bitterness in my heart towards her.
I was free, before God actually set me free. Hallelujah! Do you have any “people challenges?”
