What I've learned this week

About helping others: Christ has to be the center of our lives, the real center of our lives, it's not just saying the words or experiencing a warm and fuzzy feeling. Otherwise we are trying to build upon an unstable foundation, and that is impossible. Our focus needs to be on our relationship with God, our heavenly Father. If we get our foundation firm (a correct and true belief system), then everything will fall into place after that. Our attitude will change, we will have real hope and confidence that we can get through any situation.

It's so clear to me; difficult life situations can't change when beliefs and actions are based on lies, blame, and manipulations. You're spinning your wheels and going no where. You've have to ask yourself ... do I want things to change, do I want real help? Some don't, some tolerate living in dysfunction.
