Aftershock - Take Care of YourselfBài mẫu

Pray and Act Praying is an essential part of our Christian lives. Sometimes we are to wait on God for an answer. But it’s easy to use prayerful waiting as an excuse not to face something we fear, such as setting a necessary boundary or taking a necessary action. For example, some women refuse to set boundaries because they fear their husbands will react in anger and move out of the bedroom or the home. Their fear paralyzes them. The only action they took emotionally is walking on eggshells. And that’s no action at all. Maybe you feel certain there’s some action you should take, but you’re afraid that if you do, it will only make matters worse. Talk with your support group and pray about what to do. Consider what’s changed since you found out about your husband’s behavior. If nothing has changed, or if your relationship has worsened, it’s time for action. Don’t make rash decisions. Instead, consider what you’ve learned so far about your situation and take the wisest course of action. Next, we’ll look at step four to self-care: remembering the truth.
