5 Bible Verses for the Exhausted Woman- Free Download!<\/a><\/p>\nSeeing Naomi\u2019s melancholy and depressing response to the happy and warm welcome she received coming home, Ruth could have grown a little disillusioned in this woman she so honored and respected.<\/p>\n
Many of us would.<\/p>\n
But rather than allowing Naomi\u2019s depression and lack of faith in God\u2019s goodness to color her perception of Naomi, she continued to serve her faithfully.<\/p>\n
Whom has God placed over you?<\/p>\n
Has your honor and respect morphed into more than God intended, leaving them in an impossible position to meet expectations that are not humanly possible?<\/p>\n
Are you able to let them have feet of clay?<\/p>\n
Yes, God holds our leaders to a higher standard, but not an impossible one. And the same grace that fills in the cracks of our brokenness and flawed humanness also fills in the cracks of their brokenness and flawed humanness.<\/p>\n
We see many \u201cNaomis\u201d in God\u2019s Hall of Faith.<\/p>\n
When those whom God has placed over us fail to live up to our expectations, or even fail in being the biblical example that they perhaps should be, we shouldn\u2019t allow it to disillusion us; it should remind us that we\u2019re all broken and flawed and need God\u2019s grace.<\/p>\n
And therefore, we will remain loyal in serving them.<\/p>\n
We will remain faithful to their authority over us.<\/p>\n
We will keep an open heart to receive their mentorship and discipleship, allowing them to speak into our lives the wisdom God has so generously and faithfully given them.<\/p>\n
