Having animosity

<< < (2/2)

Marlene:
Marques, those are great scriptures. But, it is harder to follow then it is to read them. I can deal better with outsiders then I can from family members. I know it is because we love them so much and it hurts. I keep praying to God to help me deal with this better. I have been doing better with that tongue of mine. I figure keep my thoughts to myself. Two wrongs don't make a right. It is an everyday battle because we never know when the attacks are coming or how.

I know, it is all God teaching me to have mercy and to forgive. Its a part of making me in his image. I just get sick of myself. I don't like going back for the dog vomit. I sure cannot wait for the time that those memories do not come back to haunt me. It is a daily battle. I don't know about for anyone else. But, I will not lie and say I am there yet. I just asked God to erase the memories

In His Love,
Marlene

Hi Marlene,

I am there, Right Where You Are. We have been appointed to this for a very great reason:

Ecc 1:13 (CLV)
I applied my heart to inquiring and exploring by wisdom concerning all that is done under the heavens:it is an experience of evil Elohim has given to the sons of humanity to humble them by it.

Ecc 4:8 (CLV)
There was one person, but there was no second; There even was no son or brother for him; Also there was no end to all his toil, Yet his eyes were not satisfied with his riches. Then he said, For whom am I toiling And making my soul lack good? This too is vanity, and it is an experience of evil."

G. Driggs:
Very interesting and timely topic Roy M. It became apparent to me (yesterday in fact) that I have this animosity toward the Babylon that I came from. There was a commotion on our VHF radio between Christians in my town, seems everyone was calling everyone else a hypocrite, and I felt this hate welling up in me, thinking to myself, they are all hypocrites. I started feeling proud and even boasted to my wife that "I know the truth." As if I was better than them. So thanks for bringing this up, no more jokes from me about Babylon. Forgive me if I offended anyone.

Peace, G.Driggs
