A lump of coal:

Here I sit, about to do something very hard for me, swallow my pride, get some humility, apologize for something that is not my fault. A verse that keeps popping into my head lately is one that my boyfriends brother mentioned to someone else at a family dinner on Saturday.  1 Corinthians 13:11 When I was a child, I talked like a child; I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. In my case I’m clearly a female. But on this day I had heaviness in my heart about an issue that has made its self appear in my life. I didn’t know it Saturday but this verse was EXACATLY what I needed to hear. The point is I’m not a child, I am a GOD fearing woman, and I should behave as such, so from here forward, I’m going to endeavor to live this mantra. Its easy to not think about my actions on a daily basis, then when I go back I think “my gosh, I cannot believe how childish I was acting/behaving” I pride myself on being above the threshold so to speak.  Yet I’ve allowed myself to stoop beneath myself---- out of pride, standing for what I believe in. Heres where I’m leading I can still stand for something and not have to argue my point with everything I have. I can and will be the bigger person, so to YOU reading this, If I have EVER said, done anything to hurt or offend you or make you uncomfortable, I sincerely apologize..
