Do They Really Have Your Best Interest?

11/2/2013

Everybody that smiles in your face, does a kind deed or provides a good time is not always out for your best interest. While their acts of deception lead you to believe that they have love for you their intent is motivated by selfishness. Love is not self seeking but is genuinely concerned with the well being of other people.

The people that pretend to love you are nice to you as long as they are getting their way but the moment a problem arises their fear of being deprived of what they desire will turn into a rage. They seek self satisfaction at all cost. They want what they want when they want it and it doesn't matter who they hurt, it doesn't matter what conflict they cause because it's all about them. If they don't get exactly what they're after they will settle for seeing you suffer. Out of spite they become harmful, they want to annoy you, frustrate you or humiliate you.

This type of person is dangerous. Their controlling spirit can ruin your life if you let them. They will influence you to make decisions that are contrary to what's best for you. It's alarming because they can be so cunning and manipulative you don't even know what is happening. If you're not careful you'll be trapped in their web facing a bite of poisonous venom.

Be watchful of the company you keep. Be careful of those you allow to impact your life. Guard your heart and your mind make sure the people who surround you have your best interest.

“Love is that condition in the human spirit so profound that it allows me to survive, and better than that, to thrive with passion, compassion, and style.” Maya Angelou

"Love is the condition in the human spirit so profound that it allows me to survive and more than that thrive with passion, compassion and style."
Maya Angelou

"Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity. Hate destroys a man's sense of values and his objectivity. It causes him to describe the beautiful as ugly and the ugly as beautiful, and to confuse the true with the false and the false with the true."
Martin Luther King Jr.

Hi Gloria,
That does make for a hard moment. Though I cannot give you a solid answer on the decision to make here is my advice. If you have not whole heartedly forgiven your husband forgive him. It won't matter who you are with if you are living with unforgiveness because you will constantly have an inner battle and anger that you will need to deal with. Don't make yourself or anyone else suffer because you haven't forgiven.

Sit down and ask yourself do you want your marriage to be reconciled? Have your tried to work things out? Many couples have dealt with cases of infidelity but were able to restore their marriage is this what you desire? It can be a difficult process but not impossible. People may look at you like you are crazy, you have probably received different types of advice but if you want your marriage to work get rid of the distractions and fight for your marriage. Go to counseling, go to marriage conferences, open up your heart and mind to making it work.

We can become attached to people because they were there for us in a difficult time but that doesn't necessarily mean we are supposed to be in a romantic relationship with them. Really reflect on why you are contemplating being with your friend. Is it mainly because he was there for you during a vulnerable time or because you have similar beliefs, values, goals and dreams and can see yourself having a future with him. Make sure the reason runs deeper than the fact that he was there for you.

Take some time to yourself to seek God. Get in the Word and pray God's will. He will give you peace about the direction you should go.

I hope that helps! Praying for you!

God bless!
