A serious post


HI

well
I love God so much.

I was walking and praying that God would open my life, that he would free me, that a gloomy cloud I had been living in would be dissipated.

Do you want to know what I am learning? Well I going to say.

I was working at a factory and a lady make a comment like, "You don't think do you."

I don't take this well. It rolls in my mind and brings fear, worry, self doubt, flailing self justification, and the like.

As I attempted to tell myself truths, I was able to see more truths.

Which are: Mean people have to live with themselves, that stinks.

Mean people attract mean people, and that stinks for them, their getting what they dish out.

I don't need to be personally offended, I am smart and have a good education, "I do think"

I don't need to justify the meanness with a defence, I need to sit in the truth.

I don't need to be personally offended I am associated with an outstanding name.

yo dude

then the curtain rolled to reveal this idea

I think that I need the most truthful perspective of every situation or "stich"

What is my true context? Who am I in this sitch?

okay

well this is what i was wondering, i think that when Jesus was silent like a lamb before slaughter it was because he knew his sitch. when people were falsely accusing, hitting, and spitting, he didn't need to cry out in defense. he knew: who his accusers were, they were just acting according to plan, they were living with the punishment that is the fact that they were crucifying the Christ, they were only humans, he was God, he knew he was going to become saviour through this, he knew he was going to receive the highest glory. God is the judge. well,

i bet that he was full of peace when they were accusing him that is why he didn't need to speak.

just a thought

well to me it is more because

i can learn peace through this

and have been having much more lately

I am going to post a picture just for fun

Very insightful thoughts, Braden! It makes me feel mad that someone would even think they could say something mean to you. When I read that I thought, "She has no idea who Braden is, or else she never would have said that". 'cause things like that shouldn't be said to people like you.

However, I really admire that you could battle it with humility, intelligence, grace, and understanding.

oh and thanks for the shout out!
