Protect Your Standards

As women we should set standards and settle for nothing less. Too often we let other people set our standards and we are way too precious for that. Personally I've allowed people to set my standards because I wasn't respecting myself. I wasn't allowing my standards to be in line with Gods standards. I was letting this one person run all over me and disrespect me because I just wanted to be loved so bad because I thought he would be the only one to love me and my daughter. That wasn't Gods plan for me though. I brought that heartache on myself but God saw me through it. He turned that big ole mess into a message that I now share with others. I really can't express how important it is to set standards so others don't set them for you. Once you set them don't waiver. Protect those standards. You are worth it. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Don't let anyone make you feel less than because you set standards. If you don't set standards you will fall for anything and let people treat you any kind of way. If you don't set standards you will go too far and allow heartache in that God never intended for you to go through. Are you sick and tired of being treated any kind of way? The harsh reality of it all is that you allow it. Once you stop allowing it and find yourself more important than the disrespect then you will stop going through it. In order to get the respect you deserve you first have to respect yourself and then demand respect from others. Stop letting people walk all over you then complain about it. It all starts with you. Nobody can want it for you. You have to want it for yourself. Nobody can change the situation except you!
