ez2u, I second, that Amen. I have to tell you something. I have a neighbor who , I have tried to show love to for 17 years. My husband, also. I have done all kinds of good things for her. I do not have money to give a way, but I did have her to many meals. Gave of my husbands time to cut grass and various things. She just has herself to take care of and has so many material things. Well, she got mad at me for nothing this week and asked to have all the gifts for Birthdays and Christmas back. I never onced asked for them neither did my husband. We returned them. We never sook revenge. We will more then likely never talk again. But, I know God wants us to live in peace as much as we can. I am not well and this kept me in a stir all the time. She would call several hours a day and talk for hours. Even at our meal times. My husband and I tried to show her love. Material things mean more to her then people. She said," The only reason I ever tried to forgive her was I wanted presents. I told her that is not so. I have never personally attacked her. She just kept making me a punching bag because of her dark spirit, or maybe mental disease I don't know. But, God know all we tried to do was love her.
Now, this presecution is over. But, I just wanted to tell you. You are right, all the matters is God and People. Things are about to come to an end. It will tell all. It will tell the whole truth of the heart. It will speak of what we love. I am not her judge. But, from what she spoke in her cruel words were what came from her heart. She could not see 17 years of Love. I know that God enabled me to Love her she was not easy. She got bad and this I believe came from God cause now I am set free from this presecution. He taught me patience.
In His Love,
Marlene
