THE CONFIDENT WOMAN DEVOTIONAL: WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?

Spread the love

TEXT: Pro 4: 7


The Bible encourages us to seek understanding. Read a couple
of good books on the differences between men and women and also one on the
differences in personalities. If you do, it may prevent thousands of arguments
or misunderstandings.
Women offer unsolicited advice and give direction, and men usually don’t take
advice very well. The woman thinks she is just trying to help, but the man
thinks she doesn’t trust him to make the right decision.
When a woman disagrees with a man, he takes it as disapproval, and it ignites
his defenses. Men only want advice after they have done everything they can do.
Advice given too soon or too often causes him to lose his sense of power. He
may become lazy or insecure.

Men are motivated and empowered when they feel needed. Women are motivated when
they feel cherished.
Men are visual creatures; once an image is in their head, it’s hard to get it
out. Women are more inclined to remember emotions or how something made them
feel.
Seek understanding first, then speak.

Pray: Lord, I want to be a woman of wisdom and understanding. Help me
comprehend why men are the way they are and how I can improve in my
communication and friendships. Amen

From the book The Confident Woman Devotional by Joyce Meyer.
