Pastor Denise....

Often times when I am in trouble, it because I've elected to take on other people's problems or situations. So, I depend on one of my spiritual weapons--detachment. This allows me to seperate myself from issues/situations that don't concern me.

Sister Brenda,

Would you please discuss your spiritual weapon called detachment? I am intrigued.

Your post reminded me of something I had just heard the Sunday before reading your post asking for something to share. But I couldn't remember exactly how it was worded. And I didn't want to misinterpret it's meaning.

My sister today, sent that very saying with a thought that she send out weekly. This is what is says. " Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny" Frank Outlaw
