Judy,

That is indeed the beginning of understanding, Repentance, Humility and now you are starting to see.
Isn't that a wonderful part of the plan Of GOD that HE has put in place for us. Here are a few verses
from Jesus Christ to show you that this is The Right Way.

Mat 5:5 (GNB)
"Happy are those who are humble; they will receive what God has promised!

Mat 5:7  (GNB)
"Happy are those who are merciful to others; God will be merciful to them!

Mat 5:11 (GNB)
"Happy are you when people insult you and persecute you and tell all kinds of evil lies against you because you are my followers.

Mat 6: 17-18 (GNB)
17  When you go without food, wash your face and comb your hair,
18  so that others cannot know that you are fasting---only your Father, who is unseen, will know. And your Father, who sees what you do in private, will reward you.

Mat 6:34 (GNB)
So do not worry about tomorrow; it will have enough worries of its own. There is no need to add to the troubles each day brings.

Thanks everybody for responding, it means so much to me. I think I have been through something of this process before but not knowing the process thoroughly I never succeeded. Now I know what steps 1,2,3 are and can see where I am beginning to stumble. Then I will know what to ask God for, especially giving up the control. Being humbled is good, suffering is not always a bad thing and God's word is enough to start the good happening. And I will only think of today. I think I will be able to trust God more and get myself out of the picture. Judy

Judy,
I have to tell you a little something a friend told me that made me smile and think. My husband and I have been married for almost 38 years and one day I was so aggravated at him because he was in some kind of funk and every time I said anything to him he just blew up and acted like a creep! (He's never been abusive or anything like that) So anyway she said, "you know the Bible says a soft answer turneth away wrath" I said, "Oh REALLY NOW? Well it doesn't matter how softly I answer him he still gets angry!"  Now she just laughed and said, "Well, I think it really means YOUR soft answer will turn away YOUR wrath!" OH, hmm maybe so! haha!  ;D So maybe if I don't get angry back at him I will learn to get over it faster?? I always think about that when I start to lose my cool with him! If I just walk away I feel a lot better when it's all over! HO! Why didn't I think of that? ;)
Kathy :D
