Someone I know once gave me a very hard time at a difficult time of my life. I thought I had gotten over it, but this past week, I’ve been re-living the incident, in detail because we have once again crossed paths. I just realized it today.
This is silly. I’m giving this person the power to annoy me and bring stress into my life, all because of something from over 10 years ago.
When I figured that out, I asked myself whether this person was worth all that emotion and stress. The answer is “No.”
So what do I do about it? This is one of those places where prayer is my only outlet, my only sensible solution.
Father, bless me please, with the power to let this go; if I need to forgive, help me to forgive; if I need to think of it as no big thing, help me to do that.
