Discontent, jealousy, bitterness, resentment, defensiveness, touchiness, and ingratitude are the dispositions that ruin our marriages, wither our children, alienate our friends and embitter every life-including our own.
It's easy to defend our bad moods and to slide into deception and hypocrisy. But we must guard our hearts against such destructive attitudes. When they arise, we need to confess them, let them go, and experience God's forgiveness.
Don't let our bad attitude cause us to lose out while others enter into joy.
Resent comes from looking at others, contentment comes from looking at God.
When my dad went to hospital yesterday yet again, I was filled with mixed emotions. I was thinking why didn't Daddy heed my advice and just stay indoors but insist to go water his plants under the sun! Sigh.
True friends. Resentment. Shan't blog much about this.
I screwed up my 2nd last paper and I didn't want to do the same for my last paper.
Let go and feel the joy! =) I'm feeling it!
