The other day I read something akin to “A real queen knows how to adjust another queen’s crown without letting the world know”. Can we take a few moments to unpack that profound saying? In order to have our crowns adjusted we have to:
1. Wear our crown. Sometimes our crown is visible but more often than not, it’s a mental state. No matter how challenging the situation may be, we cannot allow it to define who we are; our definition is from a much, much higher source (Heb. 13:6). 2. Be secure enough to have other competent, intelligent and qualified people surrounding us. Sometimes the only people who can understand what you’re facing are those who are facing or who have faced it as well. Surround yourself with them; learn from them and allow yourself to become someone else’s teacher and role model. (Proverbs 27:17) 3. Be appreciative. If there’s one thing I’ve learned from my queenly crew it is private crown correcting is a gift that is not given by all. Those who check you privately love you; those who need to do it publically may be using your dilemma to promote their own agenda (Matt. 18:15). “Hold still” while I adjust your crown my sister queen. We haven’t come this far in vain. There is a Kingdom that needs the words, insights, skills and gifts the Divine has placed in us. Blessings, Rev. Antoinette
