Check-check; what to look for

As you work on anything in life, you need support. Especially with domestic abuse, a person needs the back- up system (security).

You might wonder what that looks like for you and if all the trust factors are in for those, you would genuinely like to rely on.

I'd like to take a moment and discuss what to look for in a person because this is super important to get your "feelers" out there. Maybe it isn't a person, but rather an organization, whether Women Empowerment Solutions or another fantastic place that can offer you everything you are seeking.

Organizations need funds to support you. Some funds may come from partnerships and sponsorships, other areas are grants or individual supporters. With your approval and decision making, pivotal changes are made.

Looking at characteristic traits is essential. Are you able to discern from Godly- unique characteristics and one that is crookedly needing some adjustments? There's a vast difference.

Be sure to test the "spirit" of this person to know if you should proceed in conversation and so forth. If you can take a minute and crack your bible open, there's a plethora of information on testing the spirits (match their type with what scripture says; if they don't match, it's a no-go).

 It's good to get personal with a church (that doesn't come easy for everyone) and visit one or two (maybe even 3). Find one you like and see what works best for you.

 Make sure you are receiving a message on the Kingdom of Heaven (again, check your bible for references here too) you will genuinely have a revelation that will take any scales off your eyes and unplug your ears if needed. If not, perfect.

 Since some are not there, it's OK, you can get there, but you'll have to put an effort out—kind of like with a job or school, you must put forth the effort. (nobody said it would be easy)

Another area, without judging (because that comes back on you and you do not want that), see how a person lives their own life. Is this someone you would want to get tips and suggestions from?

Look for honesty, righteousness, sound mind, kindness, loving, and a caring spirit. Someone, you can definitely trust (they don't repeat what you say to others after you've asked them not to).

What are their values? What's their personality type?

The best is to test the spirit and see, who does that person proceed from (Christ or evil)? Since you are severing away from domestic violence and unruly types, I'm sure you are becoming good at discerning different kinds of people and whom you should consult.

Jesus is the top answer. If you know Him, great. If you do not, give Him a try, He doesn't disappoint- guaranteed.
