How is it possible that I can be so incredibly uplifted and so harshly insulted all in the same day??? Life is definitely NOT FAIR!!!
We had a FANTASTIC weekend which I’ll tell you all about tomorrow because I’m exhausted! The truth is that I’m too angry to blog tonight. I don’t want to let someone else’s ignorance cause me to spew lava all over my space on the web. Pray that God will calm my heart and keep a tight leash on my roving tongue! Angry doesn’t even begin to describe my feelings right now.
The good news is that I’m loved by a God who knows how to be angry, understands my anger – because in this case it is truly a righteous one, and will love me through this. Another amazing thing is that when the insult came, my very first thought was to cry out to God about the injustice BEFORE crying out to you, my friends. Ahhhh growth…Also thanks to God! 😉
Aw, Niki! For what it’s worth, I’m sorry!
Don’t let anyone steal your joy, sister. You are God’s… and you are in his loving arms… rest in that… And… know this: He wasn’t impressed either!
Love ya!

Soooo very sorry you felt insulted!
Praying for God to lead and heal you–I believe it’s very healthy for you to tell Him how much it hurts!

I do believe I’m seeing a trend here, Niki.
When you went to speak at the Ladies Retreat – didn’t you have a similar good/bad incident? Hmmmm…methinks Satan is crafty….but God is greater to turn it into growth!

I am glad you were able to get away. My family is attempting to do that this weekend. We hope to end up in Alabama and see my folks whom we have not visited in nearly 2 years.
Shalom,

I believe the scipture says to “be angry, but do not sin”. So this meditation and silence is following God’s plan. I love you, and I hope that you know how much God loves you too. Growth hurts, as does the pruning, but the beautiful flowers that show later… That is what we wait for! Bloom with grace, friend.
