...that my parents were big meanies...thrusting me out in the big world of reality. However I've come to the conclusion that I, Angela Good, am truly thankful for parents that were not enablers. It's taken me a bit to come to this conclusion but when I see enablees (if you will)...I realize how truly blessed I am.
Because my parents did not enable me...
...I went for it and landed a great job. Was it scary applying to do this and leaving a job I love? YES! But was it worth it? Two years later, I can safely say, "YES! YES! IT WAS WORTH IT!!!"
...I know that I am responsible for my own actions.
...I can pray and think through things that an enablee will require responses from everyone around them.
...I am independent.
...I don't have to worry about relying on others because I know my Heavenly Father will provide for me.
...I do not have a victim-mentality.
...I have a grasp on the real world and I can function in it.
The Lord feeds the birds of the air but he doesn't throw their food in the nest! I heard this for Pastor Bodwell, I believe. Isn't that profound
