There are a lot of people out there telling other people what to do, how to live their lives, how to interact with others, what they have to do for health reasons, how to run their businesses, etc.
There’s something I’ve learned by rearing 6 children, running a business for 30 years, and working with thousands of people: No two people are the same. No two lives are the same. What is right for me may not be right for you. Only God has your answers. There are a few absolute truths (like the 10 commandments) but beyond that, the choices we make are best made between us and God.
If we want to take other people’s advice, fine. But their advice and views should never be forced on us. And we must never force our answers on other people. We don’t get to shame or use government force to push our answers onto other people. To do so is unrighteous dominion and infringement on other people’s lives, liberty and pursuit of happiness.
Learn to listen to the Spirit! Heed Its counsel for you. And remember what it tells you to do today could change tomorrow. The Spirit can help you dodge and weave through the obstacles of life. Get good at listening and obeying.
If you would like to get better at this, I have a whole free Masterclass on living a Spirit-Led life. Details here.
