YellowStone:
Mongoose, my dear friend and sister; I read your post, thought of you and the following Scripture immediately came to mind. :)
Psalm 23 - A Psalm of David.
* 1 The LORD [is] my shepherd; I shall not want.
All of creation, animals, mountains, lakes, rainbows, sounds, aromas, loved ones, etc. How could anyone want for more
* 2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
All that he has given and all that he is provides tranquillity and a peaceful rest
* 3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
He invigorates, clears troubled minds and smoothes troubled souls
* 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou [art] with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Yes, the roads do get rough and dark clouds loom overhead, but he is near and there is no need to fear for he comforts weary souls
* 5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
He has not forgotten you, he will make you strong and watch over you
* 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
He has promised this and I see him in you
Mongoose, my prayers are with you. Please feel the love and support that is so freely given from God and all your friends here at Bible Truths. God and Love are with you always, for God is love.
Love,
Darren

Hello Mongoose,
Your situation is one of the most difficult injustices for our natural human minds to understand. In fact everything about it makes us want to scream out to God and accuse Him of being unjust. It is a situation that is completely impossible for us to justify or make sense of, for me anyway.
Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
The only comfort we have is His word and He assures us that all things are done for our good. By faith, we must believe His word, let the spirit lead you. Where there is bitterness, strife, unforgiveness, there is confusion and every evil work. Wisdom that is from above is first pure, peaceable, gentle, full of mercy and good fruits.
We all know what Jesus would do, forgive.
Again this is not easy for me to say, because everything inside of me is feeling the complete opposite but I know Gods word is the truth, and I know by experience, that by applying spiritual principles, I have been set free from what appears to be impossible situations, and for me they were impossible situations, but for God all things are possible.
Vengeance is mine, thus sayeth the Lord.
Pray Mongoose to forgive this person, I know for you to be completely healed you must forgive. Dont expect to feel anything, making the choice to forgive has absolutley nothing to do with how you feel. Just make that decision, that you have chosen to forgive.
Don't allow the situation to replay in your mind, when old feelings sneak up on you, remind yourself that you have made the choice to forgive, God is in control, by faith you have handed this situation over to God.
It is in our best interest to nail the coffin and bury these things, that is where they belong. We put bandaids on wounds to help them heal, if we kept taking off the bandaid before the wound is healed, what would happen? It would keep bleeding.
When we choose not to forgive, we keep bleeding.
My prayers are with you, I know God will supply you with everything you need to make it through this.
God bless,
Kennymac

Thank you all for your love and prayers and words of comfort. I can't tell you how much they mean to me. I am, fortunately, back home and God was merciful in that the situation never arose. The weather issues on the plains this week kept everyone from getting there and have the little get together they had discussed. I am so relieved and grateful. Driving home wasn't fun but it was worth it to get back to my beautiful mountains and to my wonderful family here.
Thank you all so much for your love and prayers and I love each and every one of you so very much.

Mongoose,
I am glad you are back at home. Awww the beauty of living in the mountains. That's the one thing that Lubbock Texas has none of. Please enjoy those mountains and nature for me.
Glad things worked out okay.
Sincerely,
Anne C. McGuire
