I need to knock it off and remind myself of the many blessings I have that I take for granted, that many people would happily point out if they were in my situation. I am trying very hard to figure out what this lesson is I am to learn. God is not as direct as I would like. If I had the right frame of mind & wasn't thinking about other things, it would probably hit me like a piano falling from above on a sidewalk.
For those who willingly pray for me and / or my family members, I have another request. I know what I want to say, but to put words to it is a lot harder than I thought. Please pray for me to learn how to forgive honestly from my heart. Right now it is so full of pain, sorrow, loss, anger, frustration, fear, and hopelessness that there isn't any room for the really important thing, Forgiveness. Until I honestly forgive and ask for blessings for those who have trespassed against me, those other emotions are going to control me and that scares me. They have had their fun this is not who I am and I have to take control back.
