Knowing that we are to love our enemy. Knowing that we are to forgive. And to pray. It's really an area of struggle to me as well. My husband and I talk about it often. <BR/><BR/>I just try to keep in mind how Jesus would act with these people. But my flesh screams against it. <BR/><BR/>Thank you for coming here and commenting. :)My name is Michelle.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02649101060281144314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30488975.post-59994860958459385852008-05-08T13:44:00.000-04:002008-05-08T13:44:00.000-04:00I have the same problem.

We live in the country and other nieghbors are really fed up w/him. They are all hoping he looses his place. Now w/everything going on between us do you know how hard it is to be nice about this one trouble maker nieghbor when the other nieghbors bad mouth him? We just o well it off but when me & hubby talk at home it is even harder. Sometimes trying to understand him doesn't make sense. I just keep telling my hubby it takes all kinds and God is teaching us how to get along. I try praying for him.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30488975.post-10629273577955092742008-05-07T09:11:00.000-04:002008-05-07T09:11:00.000-04:00Thank you Mrs. Gunning. :) And I agree about bei...Thank you Mrs. Gunning. :) And I agree about being firm in convictions. I just happened to have a general "know it all" attitude when I was very young (early 20's). Not in a mean way. But in an "I've got life figured out" way. Sorta smug I suppose. <BR/><BR/>I just pray now to shine Christ's light in whatever situation I'm in. And not just a little bit of light, but His brilliant light.My name is Michelle.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02649101060281144314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30488975.post-15246933685282169732008-05-06T17:48:00.000-04:002008-05-06T17:48:00.000-04:00Amen Michelle!It's easy to remember to love others...Amen Michelle!<BR/>It's easy to remember to love others sometimes, when we are so focused on ourselves. I don't know a single one of us human beings who haven't done it at some point or another.<BR/>I think it is important to be firm in our convictions, but it never has to be done in mean-ness.<BR/>I have a hard time in not necessarily being rude, but like you in the situation you mentioned, being relateable to others. I will pray for you as I pray for myself in this area! :)<BR/>God's blessings.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
