GOD'S PROMISES - SOUNDING BOARD

It can be very difficult to be a sounding board to someone who is having problems and needs to vent. 

People who are going through difficult situations have a tendency to go on and on about it. It seems as though they have a one track mind and that is all that they can talk about.

You love the person and if you could you would change their situation with a snap of your fingers, but unfortunately there is nothing you can do to help them.

Pray and ask God to help you be that patient person that can lend an ear to listen as they vent. Sometimes it just helps them to know that someone who loves them will let them get their frustrations off their chest. Also, ask God to give you the right words of advice to offer that may help them through their difficulties.
