What would you do when the people you trust the most are the ones that are set up for your destruction? Would you live life more carefully by speaking less? hang out less? smile less? confide less? be more of an introvert? I dont know what you have decided but how about picking up some tips on wisdom?
The Word says wisdom is the principal thing, so in our doings, we should be wise. Because your sister cooked up how you would get caught in an act does not mean you will love her less would it?
We can choose our friends but should i say "unfortunately" we can't choose our family members. They have been written in our life-journey-book to be part of us either we like it or not.
So what does it mean to be "wise"? I have a couple of tips, and feel free to add yours:
If you dont trust a member of your family,
1) Try the person. How? Tell him or her secrets that can't hurt you and see how he or she handles it. This way, if it he or she falls into this trap, you would know what to or not to trust him or her with.
2) Talk less and observe more.
3) Avoid speaking about big plans in your life. Let the plans fall into place before making it a dinning table conversation
4) Love him or her regardless
5) Be bold enough to confront him or her. Admit your lack of trust, and let the truth set you free
What are your tips?
