Today’s Word: Sometimes the reason people don’t give you what you think you need in a relationship is because they didn’t see it modeled growing up. If they didn’t see family members giving love and approval and expressing their feelings, they don’t have it to give. If you’re trying to get it from them, you’re going to be frustrated. Why don’t you let them off the hook and go to God for what they can’t give? Here’s the key: God has everything you need. When you learn the principle to not rely on people but rely on Him for your approval, value, and encouragement, you won’t live stressed out because somebody is not giving you what you expect.
