All the Feels - Leading Our EmotionsSample

DAY 9: SENSITIVE

Being sensitive is a good thing, until it's not.

Sensitivity can allow you to relate and empathize with others and is such a gift to those needing encouragement. However, when we are too sensitive, we become a walking target for the enemy. We can become easily offended, hold grudges and then miss out on amazing people because we can’t see past our own hurt feelings.

Here are a few things to remember the next time you get "in your feels" about that thing they said, that look they gave you or why they didn't invite you to the party.

There is always more going on than you know.

Many times it has nothing to do with us, and everything to do with what’s happening in their own life. So let’s try asking more questions instead of assuming the worst. Most of the time people won’t even know they’ve hurt us.

When you feel offended, reach out and ask them how they are doing. When we choose to care + check in instead of complaining or accusing, it opens the door for genuine understanding in our relationships.
