God also brought to mind long -forgotten snippets of conversations I had with friends and family allowing me to see I too had hurt others as they had hurt me.Yet Jesus never hurt me, and loves me even when I am not so nice to those I am supposed to love. Very good post. I also received a blessing form reading the comments.<br /><br />It is never easy to know friends and family can be cruel or dismissive of us...my first reaction is retaliation,good thing God is merciful and His word teaches me the right ways to behave, I just need to pray and listen before I act.( that is the hard thing)KathyB.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13076933273610590290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407861124001767545.post-85894411792316911442011-07-15T13:45:10.962-07:002011-07-15T13:45:10.962-07:00My daughters and I were talking a couple of days a...My daughters and I were talking a couple of days ago and one of my daughters said something to her sister that hurt her feelings. I thought it might when I heard here but the conversation was moving so quickly and since she didn't say anything about it I thought maybe I was wrong. A couple of days later I was talking to my oldest daughter when she mentioned the comment her sister said and told me it had indeed hurt her feelings. Then she told me, that her sister was "only human" and sometimes we make mistakes. She said she felt like the comment was not meant to hurt and in her mind, she wasn't going to let it bother her. <br /><br />I was both flabbergasted and proud - at the same time. So amazed at her insight and proud of her wisdom. I'm trying to apply her lesson to my life as well.Donna @ The House on the Cornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11996281285406090119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407861124001767545.post-89964656025204198832011-07-14T10:21:51.897-07:002011-07-14T10:21:51.897-07:00this can be a double edged sword. i think confront...this can be a double edged sword. i think confronting is best if you expect it to happen again. i had an aide once who pat me on the head in front of someone. after they left, i told the aide i didnt like people to do that. she said well you do things i dont like too. it kinda got ugly from both of us from there but i said tell me, i cant fix what i dont know is wrong.<br /> harboring the hurt can be bad too. my expressions on my face often reveal what my mouth has held back w/o me knowing it. if you choose to not say anything, let it go 'completely' or itll come out another way.Angeliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14747253601405577644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407861124001767545.post-35748624001667928832011-07-14T06:47:01.473-07:002011-07-14T06:47:01.473-07:00I know exactly what you're talking about, and ...I know exactly what you're talking about, and it seems like when we're over one hurdle, there's another. And every time, I know that the right thing to do is set it aside, but the thing I want to do is to dwell on it to try to get some perverse satisfaction from doing so. I also remember that Scripture says, 'If I hide iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me.' For me, <i>not</i> confronting a friend is the hardest of all. I'm a resolver. But I think the Lord doesn't always want me to get my way in this, that I need to set aside my pride in this. So hard to do. And the Scripture you quote is just what we need to remember in times like this!Cranberry Morninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10758563068581561194noreply@blogger.com
