What To Do With Mean Girls Pt. 2

After running yesterday’s post about mean people, a friend of mine emailed me asking a great follow up question. I’m wondering if you had the same questions and concerns.

Praying for people who are hurtful is tough. I don’t necessairly like the idea of making my heart vulnerable to praying for them. Because, when we pray something inside us changes and we are almost forced to see that person differently. We can’t come before our pure and glorious King with an ugly heart as we pray for our mean girls.

How am I supposed to work with such a mean person. I can’t very well quit my job…

Question: To Stink Or Not To Stink

This week I went on and on about my stinky mood. Well…because I still suffer from said stinky-ness I thought I would continue to write about it.

 

This afternoon I just about threw my beloved laptop out the window. I’m serious. I fantasized opening my window and taking great pleasure at seeing this thing fall ten feet and crashing into cyber oblivion.

 

Insert stinky mood…yet again.

 

To spare you the details, you would NOT have enjoyed hanging out with me this afternoon. I just about ripped off every head that stood in my fury.
