That's where I'm at today. This past week has been interesting. I've had a few bumps, which is normal, however, I haven't experienced many as of late. So when some issues popped up, they took me for an emotional roller coaster ride.
I'm kind of mad at myself, because I like to think that I handle most situations well, but after reviewing my reactions to the situations presented to me, I was disappointed. I know better than to respond immediately when dealing with a confrontation yet that's exactly what I did and I'm regretful. In one situation, that occurred this week, I feel as though I compromised my beliefs by offering an apology to appease someone I hurt with my opinion. I truly am sorry that the person was hurt, but I am not sorry for my opinion. I understand that everyone has their own beliefs and viewpoints. I don't elevate mine above any ones, nor should I have to crease.
I'm still happy and thankful to The Father and The Son, Jesus Christ. I don't apologize for loving God and believing and following what He says. I know I'm going to encounter more and more resistance to The Word because there are millions of people who don't subscribe to the same beliefs as I do. That's okay. I still love my brothers and sisters. It's not my place to judge anyone and The Bible tells us this.
So, I move forward with lessons learned and more to study for!
