Hey Peter, happy to say I didn't drink this weekend. I thought about it a lot, but I didn't do it b/c I know GOD is pleased when I don't. I did smoke quite a bit tho. When I smoke on the back porch I feel like it puts me into the present. It's a change of scenery from my room. But yeah, I remember "friends" from college who have unfriended me on facebook for no reason. It hurts. Way harder to forgive than want revenge. But I have to remember, that they have their own hidden reason why they did it. And it's probably something they're suffering from. I know I've let people down too, like when I was in high school, there were some people getting bullied, and I didn't stand up for them. And I feel like a coward for not. But I also did stand up for 1, I remember. And I'm glad I did. Didn't go to church today, and haven't for years now. I just feel like going to church that there's too much expectation to go EVERY Sunday. I don't feel like a relationship with GOD works like that. There is a time for everything, the Bible says, and sometimes a Sunday is meant for something else. Really glad to hear from u again in yur videos. U make sense, and glad there's someone out there that's going through the same thing I am that has a good head on their shoulders. And is vocal about it. Thanks man, and God bless.
Well, whether we like it or not, it’s people that affects us more than anything else in life. (Take our relationships with our family, for example.) Our relationships with other people matter more than money, material possessions, our jobs, because we want to be loved and accepted by nature. I know that in my life, it’s people that have gotten to me more than anything else lol. I am more used to my own company than most, but we all have limits and you know of my past struggles so… It’s easy to think others have let us down and took the easy way out so to speak, it’s a REAL test for loners especially. People have this attitude of, it’s your life so sort it out, as if to say they’re not responsible for it, and that’s true enough… But, ultimately it’s a heart issue, if people judge you, don’t want to be friends or just don’t like you, then nothing can be done about that. Some have a change of heart, others don’t, leave it with God, Amen. *Life is a journey with many lessons to learn, so God lets things happen for a reason*
@ Taking it one day at a time, I do think it is important to let go the weight and burden of those in our past who have offended us, how heavy were their hearts that could not forgive, if I now carry the weight in my own heart as excuse to be blinded from truth then I simply do the same as those I accuse. I do not think we have to hold onto those relationships that drag us down though, but rather let go with open eyes and a lightness of heart, wish them well and let go.
God bless you brother
