Blessed, Holy God,
Thank You. Another hiccup.
Some hurt feelings. And then of course, my own pride. What can You do
with me, Father?
I felt it as it happened.
Recognized my own snarkiness. Genuinely wanted to do it all
differently. Yet there I was. Pouting. Sulking. Stewing. With
thoughts of lashing out.
Thank You that I chose
instead to laugh. Not at the problem. Or the person. No. I turned to
comedy. Got my mind off myself for awhile.
Thank You that even though I
still held somewhat tightly to my own “rightful” indignation, I
relaxed enough not to choke on it. Father, You have taught me better.
Yes. Indeed I do know better.
Teach me this morning what
You would have me learn about rightfulness.
