ForeverHers:

I forgot why you might be angry with me if you are. It seems to me that you are angry with me. Would you let me know what the issues are that you have with me?

Coming to this forum is one of my coping mechanisms. I would not like for it to be tainted by our continual conflicts.

To be honest, I have been insulted by what have seemed to be digs at my Christianity. My love for the Lord is intense. He brought me through all of this. The fact that my H and I are together is indeed a MIRACLE. The HOLY SPIRIT spoke to me through this, opened doors for me that were closed shut, opened my eyes where I was blind and opened my ears when I was unable to hear..... I could go on and on with many unbelievable specifics such as "How did I know exactly where to find my H on D-Day out of all the motels in this city?"

Although I may not be able to quote exact scripture, I am Saved and Trust in the Lord with all of my heart... I wish you wouldn't go there with me... It is very wounding....

I have not understood how you profess your Christianity and then continue to hurt me that way. I would think you don't mean to do this. I'm hoping that you don't mean to do this....

I'm praying that this does not produce more anger towards me. However, I do want to resolve this and move forward.

I'm sorry for any unhappiness or insult that I may have caused you. Don't you believe in forgiveness?

Mimi, I am not angry with you. Hopefully I explained some of what you might be interpreting as "anger" on FGG's thread, but if not, I will try to explain things a little better. So let me know if there are things that you perceive as "anger" from me toward you and I'll try to answer as best I can.

In the meantime, let me ask for your forgiveness if I have offended or hurt you. Please remember that disagreement with "advice" is not the same thing as "anger at someone." By the same token, if someone wants me to "butt out" of their conversation for any reason at all, all they need to do is to say so and I will comply. It has nothing to do with "being angry" with them. It has everything to do with not trying to "force" my opinion or advice on anyone who is not open to discussion of their chosen course of action. The "intent" of comment is to hopefully give the recipient something to think about and to decide for themselves, hopefully in prayer with God and in study of Scripture, the relative merits of advice and whether or not they choose to incorporate it or modify their course of action.

God bless.
