Last Monday, I was basking in the glow of seeing my fiance for the first time in seven months!! Well, technically I saw him on Sat, but you get the idea.
One thing I was excited about was getting to go to school with him. J goes to Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry in Redding. Going with him was the highlight of my week. I can't explain how awesome it feels to be introduced to people who say, "Oh it's YOU! So great to finally meet you!" I love knowing that J is talking about me to people. I met a TON of great people and got LOTS of hugs!
On Monday, Danny Silk, who is the family and marriage pastor at Bethel was speaking. He got up and started fielding questions from the students. Little did I know, that in one question Danny would rock my thinking forever. A girl stood up and asked him, what the key to successful relationships was. Danny said this.
"You have to have two Powerful People, making Powerful Decisions,to LOVE."
Mind blown.
He went on to explain that if you only have one powerful person and one who doesn't view them selves as powerful you automatically set up a Victim relationship. One person (the powerful one) will have to over compensate for the others victim mentality.
The past few weeks I've been exposed to the reality of what happens when one person views themselves as a victim, and not powerful. The reality is, that when you view each other as Powerful- you trust each other to be powerful.
So from today on, I encourage you to start making Powerful decisions to LOVE. No matter who you are loving. Each decision you make is Powerful, because the Bible tells us that through Jesus, we are more than conquerors.
Choose to be Powerful not a victim. Make your decisions count, not count against you.
