I’m sure you have heard the saying, “Don’t wear your feelings on your sleeve?” When you love or have a respect for someone that blatantly hurts you, it’s hard to overlook it. However, even with this saying, it seems to basically tell you and myself to protect ourselves. There is one of my favorite scriptures that also gives us specific instructions on how to prepare for this. In Proverbs 4:23, it tells us
“Above all else, guard your heart,
    for everything you do flows from it.” — Let’s not allow anyone to take your joy from you..It’s okay to have a tender heart, a forgiving soul..What’s not right, is allowing your heart to become sad because of the inconsistencies of another. BLESSINGS TO YOU~L.A.M
