Well, howdy there! Let’s gab a bit about how to wrangle all that drama, you know, the kind that just sets your teeth on edge. Us Christian folks, we gotta handle things a bit different, ain’t that right?
First off, when drama comes a-knockin’, you gotta pray. Yep, get down on your knees, or just sit a spell and talk to the Lord. Ask Him to give you a steady hand and a calm heart. He’s the one who can really straighten things out, you know.
And speaking of steady hands, you gotta hold your tongue. Don’t go blabberin’ everything to everyone. That’s just pourin’ gas on the fire, and we sure don’t need more flames, do we? Like them old sayings go, loose lips sink ships, and a shut mouth catches no flies. So zip it up and think before you speak.
Now, drama, it’s like a bad weed. It just keeps comin’ back if you don’t get to the root of it. And a lot of times, that root is all about forgiveness. Yeah, I know, it ain’t easy. Sometimes you gotta forgive folks who’ve hurt you bad. Sometimes you even gotta forgive yourself. But you gotta do it, honey. Holding onto that anger and resentment, well, it’s like carryin’ around a sack of rocks. It’ll just wear you down.
- Forgive others: They might not deserve it, but you gotta let it go. It ain’t for them, it’s for you.
- Forgive yourself: We all make mistakes, child. Don’t beat yourself up over it. Learn from it and move on.
- Forgive God?: Sometimes, we get mad at God when things don’t go our way. But He’s got a plan, even when we don’t see it. Trust in Him.
And another thing, be kind, even to them that don’t deserve it. You know, kill ’em with kindness, that’s what I always say. It ain’t always easy, but it’s the right thing to do. Bless them folks, even when they’re cursin’ you. Pray for them, even when they’re tryin’ to hurt you. That’s what Jesus would do, and we gotta try to follow in His footsteps.
Now, about them friends of yours… choose ’em wisely. If they’re always stirrin’ up trouble, well, maybe it’s time to find some new friends. You know, the kind that lift you up instead of draggin’ you down. Good friends are like a warm cup of coffee on a cold day, they just make you feel better.
Drama’s like a fire, see? It needs fuel to keep burnin’. Don’t give it no fuel! Don’t keep talkin’ about it, don’t go over and over it with your friends or with anyone else for that matter. You know how some folks just love to chew on a problem? Don’t be like that. Just let it die down. The less you talk about it, the quicker it’ll go away.
Remember that verse in Proverbs? “As charcoal to embers and as wood to fire, so is a quarrelsome person for kindling strife.” Don’t be that quarrelsome person, child. Don’t be the one who’s always stirrin’ the pot.
And when it comes to family drama, well, that’s a whole ‘nother kettle of fish. Family can be tough, you know. They know just how to push your buttons. But you still gotta try to handle things in a Christian way. That means bein’ patient, bein’ kind, and tryin’ to understand where they’re comin’ from. And like I said before, forgivin’ ‘em, even when it’s hard.
So, there you have it. A few little tips on how to deal with drama like a good Christian woman. It ain’t always easy, but with the Lord’s help, you can get through anything. Just keep your faith, hold your tongue, and be kind to one another. And remember, this too shall pass.
Handling drama is part of life. You gon’ find it everywhere. With your family, at church sometimes even, at work with your friends just about anywhere. Remember to pray about it and keep a good attitude. Handle things the way Jesus would and things will work out.
And don’t forget, God’s always there. He’s just a prayer away. Lean on Him when things get tough, and He’ll see you through. He ain’t never let me down yet, and He won’t let you down neither.
