keep praying for me as i deal with this obstacle of confronting manipulative behavior with my roommate J. i know i'm being challenged by this and my temper is getting the better of me lately. i pretty much call out this crap whenever i see it and confront it with facts. now that J has asked me to do a Bible study with her, i have to step up my game both as a leader and a Believer.
J likes to play the victim in almost every circumstance to manipulate others into doing for her stuff she's physically and mentally able to do for herself. i keep telling her that she's an adult and that she can do it, which is the truth. as far as her lying goes, that's in The LORD's Hands to deal with her heart. J has a to choose either to continue lying for whatever reason (save face, or puff herself up, etc.) or choose to act more like JESUS. this is my current prayer for her, that The LORD will do a mighty work in her heart and life as we continue to study The WORD together. it's not enough to just read The WORD but to be do-ers of The WORD as well so that we don't deceive ourselves. HE called us to go out into the world and make disciples of CHRIST, disciples work by doing and being The Light & Love of CHRIST.
