Folks the reason I have not been posting recently is because I have been sick lately and going through lots and lots of tests, surgery and therapy. Thankfully the doctors have permitted me to work through the treatment and I am going about my regular routine as normal. I am battling a physical ailment which some of my closest friends and family have been praying earnestly about. If it be God's will, I will be much better soon and begin to post on a daily basis again. If you feel the urge to pray for me, it would be hugely appreciated. Please do not ask me for any details. If you want to help, just pray for me.
Yet, I felt the need to post today, because of something terrible which took place between Sunday and yesterday. I accidentally blamed the wrong man, who I hardly knew, for something which happened on Sunday morning that normally should not have bothered me, but triggered some very deep emotional hurt from the past.
Dear Lord,
I confess that I have sinned. I still have some lingering emotional wounds from my past. Wounds which trigger hurt. I unloaded my frustration and anger from something that happened on Sunday morning onto someone innocent --- Someone I didn't even know very well, yesterday. Lord, heal my wounds, both emotional and physical, as only you are able. Lord, your word says that "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:9. Father, please forgive me for my sin. I repent of it, and will try never to do it again.
In Jesus' Name,
Amen.
Remember what James says: "Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger; for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God." James 1:19-20
The evil one (Satan) is a deceiver. He deceives and confuses and obfuscates and messes with your head. He wants you to become jealous, angry, upset, and take away your joy. He is more powerful than you think. Beware the evil one.
