Text: Matthew 9:35-38
How to Help without Enabling
1. We want to learn, with the help of God, to offer what they need, not what they want.
We need to identify the real need.
We need to pay attention to actions, not words.
2. We need to set healthy boundaries.
We need to set up Time boundaries with overly needy people.
We also need to set up Resource boundaries
3. ALLOW THEM TO FACE THEIR CONSEQUENCES.
2 THINGS TO REMEMBER.
Rescuing isn’t always helping.
Write this down. Jesus is the Savior, not you. Jesus is the Savior, not you.
