Are You A Fixer?
Luke 10:41-42 (NLT) But the Lord said to her, “My dear Martha, you are worried and upset over all these details! There is only one thing worth being concerned about. Mary has discovered it, and it will not be taken away from her.”
What are you missing out on when you’re busy fixing everybody else’s problems – which are not your responsibilities in the first place?!?! I’ll tell you what you’re missing out on! You’re missing out on following the directions God has for you, all because you’re making everyone other than Him your priority. You’re missing out on the intimate clarity and peace that God speaks specifically into your life. All those other folks you’re seeing about have the same privilege as you do – that is, to take their cares to God, and ask Him to help them. Are you a ‘fixer’? You’d better stop that! Mind your own business by minding God!
