People want you to play.
Watch out!
You might be the ball!!!

I get it, but, think:

Stores don't put them out,
Parks don't put them out,
Event/theme places don't put them out.
Who immediately puts them out as unwanted, also hinting that the bigger person is incompetent and incapable of handling the issue on their own?
A ban is less traumatizing than
forced removal.

There are people who won't dare eat without praying over their food but will purposely treat others like dirt.

The next time someone attacks your grown self for the religion you were raised in, the college you did or did not attend, the neighborhood you grew up in or live in now, or the place where you work, remind them that they chose to bully you, you didn't choose to bully them. They chose you because they thought you would take it because they think you're weak because of yours or your parent's choices for your life.
You turned out to be the great, peaceful you.
They turned out to be a bully. Hmmm...

No sense trying to spare your reputation with people who don't like you anyway. So say what you gotta say. Do what you gotta do. It's God we need to please. Say it! Do it!

People block you from doing what God called you to do, then wonder why you act strange and like you don't know what to do.

You know what to do! They just won't let you. So, then you don't know who to be because you're not allowed to be yourself.

Example:
God called you to play the horn.
You're told no but are forced onto the drums.
You sit there, not knowing how to play, when to start, where to stop, or how to keep the rhythm - no spontaneity or improvisation or flow - BECAUSE
you weren't called to the drums. You were called to the horn where you can do all that because it's in you.

But they're going to act like you're the problem!

This goes for everything else, too; any gift, talent, calling, office job, landscaping position, plumbing, singing, etc.

Either sit there and make yourself look incompetent, quit and wait, or quit and work somewhere else that will utilize what God called you to do.

Why does she need to change so you won't sin?
You change. Grab a hold onto God and do right.
Wait a minute, there are some who don't even believe in God but they can do right regardless of how she dresses or dances or talks or walks. You have God!

Often, it is a specific female or a specific group of females, that one wants to dress differently...which begs the question, "Why them?"
Maybe, it's more about control of them than their modesty that's supposed to make the man/men live right.)

Sunday,
I've heard some of the elements of the prayer many times.
This time, God led me to appreciate it in a higher way, meaning none of us know all that needs to be healed, and especially whatever generational curses there are or the soul ties we have.
We may think we have none of those because they aren't like a pulsing, red light in our lives...
no drug abuse or alcoholic parents or rampant, crazed adultery or lasciviousness in the family. But, there could be something in all of us that we don't realize is unhealed/cursed/tied or that any of our stuff is a problem because it doesn't interfere with our life.
When we surrender all, then God heals some things, then we go, "OH, that! That needed to go away?!? I didn't know." Then God tells us why because of the layers we will eventually see and understand.
Example - Nothing deep, just tiny examples: People who have to eat a sandwich a certain way; are afraid of noodles, beards, red cars, carpet, or whatever; have to take several baths each day, why he/she treats their child/sibling/relative that way, the need for a particular/laborious routine, etc.
(Pause: People, don't go telling the world those examples are me. None of these are me. They're just examples. This alone tells you I need healing from people putting stuff on me and running with it like they know me instead of asking me and purposely misconstruing 'examples')
Anyway...
Stuff could be something much deeper that we don't know about, don't know how we got how we are, or weren't even born when whatever started that we need healing from.

Do what God tells you to do.
Others who don't like it will have to deal with their own emotions and issues about it - pouting, anger, and maybe even detachment from you. They have to wrestle with themselves and maybe with God, but you have to do what God assigned you.
If others refuse to assist when they are supposed to, they failed their test. Your test is to get it done. Pass your test.
Have they ever ignored God's command to them for your sake? No. They do what God tells them, in spite of you. Why can't you do what God tells you, in spite of them?

Kids see parents being mean to them while they teach the kids to show the Love of Christ or before they send the kids out the door to show the Love of Christ.

Parents: Mean. Mean. Mean. Then, tell the kids to go out and show the love of Christ.

Kids thinking: "How?!? All y'all are to us and to others is mean then fake nice to others, but teach us to show the Love of Christ!
We see you. The 🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️ doesn't = the 🗣👄 ."

Kids can see! They either don't trust the adults or learn to fake the Love of Christ like they think the adults are faking it.

I'm talking about Christians. Why don't they realize they bring Jesus in with-in them? Why aren't they already planning to act right before you or I enter and bring Jesus with us?

Some people don't want you present because they believe they have to act right if you're around. Even when you enter, don't say a word, don't make a face or sound, don't introduce yourself; and either don't care how they act because it's not your God-assignment to care or your lane or that they act differently behind closed doors vs in public and know better or you already know they don't walk their talk but understand that it is what it is. Whew!
Christians feel wrong in your presence (God's presence in you or intellectual/educational/career experience abilities they should also have!) and don't want you around because they don't want to do right - not for a 30-minute meeting, 45-minute informational session, hour-long event, two-hour long service project, or 8-hour workday. That's a sign to you that His light or your intellect/education/career experiences truly shine through you. Consider it a compliment. Someone who is not afraid of you or embarrassed by/insecure about themselves will welcome you.

Your backbiters, that you aren't even aware of, will gather around you in times of trouble, just to turn you against the one person that can help you. Why? They don't want you to be helped. They will pretend to care and want what's best for you, but are secretly against you.
When the road gets rougher than they thought it would, and decide they really want you to get better, they have the conundrum of trying to figure out how to turn your heart back to the one they turned you against but need to help you. Always think for yourself. Ask God to help you think for yourself, as in going to Him for directions instead of following people because they may like you.

Some feel the need to give or offer so much to keep others in their life, that when they meet someone who doesn't require all that, the person doesn't know how to relax and accept the support/care/friendship.
Simple example: Think about the little kid who always thought they had to promise you something to get you to play with them. You had to tell them you would play with them anyway and didn't need to be promised stuff. Kid didn't know how to act with that.
Some adults are this way, too.
Where did the insecurity come from?
Why do they think they need to promise to get friendships, etc?
Is it confusing one industry that works that way with regular life?
Is it the loss of former friends because of issues around them? (Ex on the kid-level:
Parent fusses alot or is always out-of-hand, so others don't like to come for play dates. The kid feels the need to make promises to get other kids to come over to play.)
People, you're good enough as you are. There is a friend for everyone.
Also, if applicable, clean up your
head 'space'/environment/life so those who care can come around and feel safe and at ease when hanging with you.

You don't even like the situations or the people, but you're mad at other people because they don't like the same situations and people.
