Good Friday Morning, Everyone!
This intro is showing up in ALL CAPS. I don't know why, so please excuse the caps.
Sister Michelle and Sister Cassandra P.—thank you for sharing at Bible Study last night. And Doc, thank you for popping in to remind me of those early days as your mom 😄.
Today is Day 27—just three more to go! Hang in there, ladies. We’ll be transitioning to weekly reflections for July and August, so stay with us.
📖 Proverbs 27 reminds us of the value of wise relationships, the beauty of humility, and the courage found in honest self-awareness. Through godly connections and healthy restraint, we grow—often in ways we could never achieve on our own.
Let’s see what God is shaping in you through this journey. ✨

Sister Alanda. We both answered #3. Learning to trust God if when we don’t understand it. And that’s where the test comes, in trusting Him. 🙏❤️. Thanks for sharing your answers. FYI, in case you missed it, there’s a question at the bottom we are encouraged to answer.❤️
DeleteThank you sister Debbie for highlighting this for me..
DeleteThe response I would share about my transformation would be .
I’m learning to trust God’s way even when I don’t understand it.
Yes even when I don’t understand it , at times i sit and converse with God and I ask him do you really want me to do this , and his response is a blunt yes , he said try me and you will see , he said don’t I feed the birds of the air and the fishes in the sea , so what makes you think i won’t take care of you ? When I get these kinda responses in my head I just have to trust him .
Have a wonderful day ladies
You are welcome🙏🏼
DeleteSister Aland, this is one of the things I’m often reminded of—how God looks after the birds.
Over the last couple of weeks, while going on my walks, I’ll say to my son, “Let’s take some food for the birds.” As we walk, we toss the food wherever we see them. In my heart, I think to myself, “I want to be the person God is using to feed them.”
It may seem like a small act, but to me, it’s a sacred one. Just knowing that God sees even the sparrow, and that He might choose us to help care for them—it humbles me.🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️
Good Morning Sisters.
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday.
Where did the week go? 😀

This responses about my transformation resonated with me.
I’m learning to grow through what initially stings.
I chose this response because, growing up, I was never really corrected in love, I was beaten. And sometimes, even when I hadn’t done what I was being punished for. As a result, I developed a deep resistance—maybe even a defense mechanism—any time someone tried to correct me. I didn't trust correction; I braced for pain, not growth.
Fast forward to today—God has been at work, circumcising my heart and teaching me how to receive correction as love, not rejection. It's still a journey, but I’ve come a long way.
I remember a moment that really showed this shift. One day, one of my daughters, Cassie, corrected me for something I said. To be honest, my first instinct was to retaliate. That old reflex rose up—but then I paused and simply said, “Thank you, Cassie.” She looked at me, smiled, and nodded. 🙂
It was such a small moment, but it felt like a huge victory. God's grace is truly transforming the way I respond—not just outwardly, but inwardly too.
Have A Wonderful Day my \Wise Sisters.
Sister Debbie, this really touched me. What a powerful testimony of healing and growth. Thank you for sharing. That moment with your daughter speaks volumes. Wonderful day to you too.💛
DeleteThank you Sister Cindy. Appreciate your kind words of encouragement. This is my desire, that God Transforms every broken places in my life. ❤️❤️
DeleteGreat progress Sis. Debbie. I love the point you raised about trusting correction - not bracing for pain, but seeing correction as a chance for growth. I have to continually remind myself of this! Thanks for sharing!
DeleteGood morning all!

Sister Cindy, Thank God you can identify where you are growing. Keep on Growing. There is the question at the both we have to answer, in case you missed it, 🙏🙏❤️
DeleteSister Debbie, thank you for pointing this out.
DeleteHere's my response about my transformation that stood out today:
In the past, whenever I was corrected, even if it was gentle feedback, it honestly felt like a personal attack. My first reaction was defensiveness, overthinking, or quietly shutting down. But God’s been working on me and softening those sharp edges.
Just the other day, someone I really care about told me my tone came off a little… “spicy” during a conversation. I definitely felt that sting. For a moment, my pride wanted to jump in with excuses. But instead, I paused, prayed (and maybe pouted a little—lol), and realized they were right. So I went back, owned it, and apologized. That moment turned into one of the most honest and healing conversations we’ve ever had. Who knew correction could actually open the door to deeper connection?
Sister Cindy, thank you for sharing that. I believe being corrected is something we all struggle with—it often hits our pride, and most of us don’t naturally want to own up to our wrongs.
DeleteI’m glad you were able to pause, reflect, and make amends. That truly shows growth, my sister. It’s a beautiful reminder that God is at work in all of us, shaping us little by little into His likeness. Keep pressing on! 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️
Oh, by the way, you are welcome..
DeleteGood morning ladies: I hope everyone's day is of to good start.

DeleteSister Ann. Thank you for sharing. Like Sister Hazel, I’m getting to know you a bit more ❤️

ReplyDeleteGoodnight everyone!
ReplyDeleteHere are my answers to the temperament transformation quiz:
1. What might others say about your courage in doing what’s right?
I’m learning to speak up even when it’s uncomfortable.
- I have not had many opportunities recently to put this one into practice, however I know that the time is coming when I will have to demonstrate courage in speaking up. I believe the Holy Spirit will help me to ‘speak up’ when the times comes, and I look forward to seeing this area of transformation in my life
2. What might people close to you say about your honesty and humility?
I’m learning to admit when I’m wrong without making excuses.
3. How might others describe your dependence on God’s wisdom instead of your own?
I’m learning to pause and pray before I make decisions.
4. How would others describe your openness to correction?
I’m learning to see feedback as a gift, not an attack.
- This is a big area of growth for me. I never saw feedback as a gift, but due to my temperament, I would see it as an attack. As we work through this temperament transformation, I am beginning to accept that feedback can be positive (especially when given in love) but even if I receive feedback that might sound harsh, I will not view it as a personal attack.
Have a great night everyone and wonderful weekend!

Greetings!
ReplyDeleteWhat might people close to you say about your honesty and humility?
☐ I’m learning to admit when I’m wrong without making excuses.
It is said that Cholerics do not like to apologize and that they win arguments and debates. As a child of God I am learning that this is not God honouring so I have been allowing the Holy Spirit to direct my actions in this regard. The more knowledgeable I become about my temperament the more I am willing to drop anything that does not bring glory to God.
How might others describe your dependence on God’s wisdom instead of your own?
☐ I’m learning to pause and pray before I make decisions.
Being impulsive at times by nature, I am truly aware that in all my ways I must please God and I must acknowledge Him; therefore I am practising pausing and praying before decision making.
"I am Yours LORD!"
Good evening to all!
Profound contributions by many of you. Your extra sharing is a testament of the transformative power of the Word of God and the Holy Spirit. Thank you!
