I was talking the other day to a friend who is in the midst of a spitting contest with a group of friends. She allowed as how it really is them, not her, and they should know better.
She then said, "I know you disagree with me, don't you?" And since she asked....
All I found it necessary to remind her of was what she learned back in the day: To go look in the bathroom mirror and say, "I am looking at my problem," and then to dig until she found the real root. I took no gloating pride in saying that. It was almost like, on being asked, giving her the time of day.
Here's my miracle...I immediately thought of a situation that was making me a tish uncomfortable. That little interaction gave me pause to think and to realize if I did not take care of my slight discomfort, it would have somebody else's name on it before noon the next day. And I would know it was them and not me and they should know better.
So I did my dig, found my root, wrapped my fear in faith and put it out upon the water. I felt 10 pounds lighter. And, just as a sidebar, almost anything is worth it to feel 10 pounds lighter.
God is so good to me. God is so good. God is.
Thank You.
