DON'T IGNORE THE SIGNS! SAMUEL R BLAKES

Choosing better relationships starts with wisdom about who you allow into your heart. In this message, Bishop Samuel R. Blakes shares four biblical keys to recognizing character, avoiding rushed commitments, and building healthier connections. Learn how to: ✅ Discern before you deepen. ✅ Delay before you decide. ✅ Demand demonstration of change. ✅ Determine your direction before you develop the connection. Whether you’re navigating friendships, dating, or considering reconnecting with someone from your past, this lesson will help you evaluate actions, establish boundaries, and make informed decisions. 📖 Scripture references: Proverbs 4:23; Proverbs 14:15; Proverbs 19:2; Matthew 7:16–17; Proverbs 4:25–27. “You can have a tender heart and still exercise sound judgment.” 💬 What have you learned to pay attention to before allowing someone closer to your heart?
