Mark 6:27-28

These two verses just really hit me today.  Yesterday I saw someone in passing that I haven't seen for a while.  It seemed to me that he glared at me as I passed.  At the time it really took me aback, and I started thinking about how unfair it was that he was angry at me when he was the one who treated me unfairly in the past, etc, etc.  I even started getting a little angry with him again.  An hour or two later, another person asked me to a go away, in a way that seemed surprisingly hateful/angry.  What??

Reading these verses brought all this back, made me think about it again and get angry.  But that's not what God wanted.  It doesn't matter how wronged I feel, I need to get over it and forgive them (did they really do anything wrong??).  It's surprising how hard that is.

I pray that both of them have wonderful, blessed days today.
