A powerful reminder from Real Talk Kim on having balanced, healthy, stable friendships, connections and relationships:
“You are not a rehabilitation center for badly raised adults. It is not your job to fix them, change them, parent them or raise them. Listen, you want a partner, not a project. You want a friend, not a babysitting job.”
If you refuse wisdom and ignore discernment in relational matters, you will unknowingly open the door to toxic connections, imbalanced associations, predatory partnerships, unhealthy friendships and unequally yoked relationships.
You need to heal where you hurt, else the unhealed parts of you will attract the ones who will exploit and use those wounds to their advantage.
Healing your soul (mind, will, emotions) and heart is vital for freedom from trauma and for closing the access to abusive connections.
You have to value yourself enough to say NO to disrespect, dishonor, degrading behavior and learn to walk away from those who intentionally choose to devalue, humiliate and violate you.
Change begins with you.
You have the power to choose wisely.
You can have healthy relationships if you will allow GOD to heal your heart and life.
