Right in front of your nose
04.19.05 (12:16 pm) [edit]The truth, that is. Sometimes it is hard to be patient with yourself or others when they refuse to see truth. You shouldn't point fingers and point out the speck in other people's eyes. You should use each situation to look at yourself and examine your oqn heart.
Being patient and praying for someone to see the truth is the stinking hardest thing ever in the history of the world! But, it is the most loving action you can take toward someone. I am writing this for my own benefit - to reinforce in my heart and mind that being supportive/patient is worth it. Even when it is stinking hard!!!!!!!!! AAAAAHHHHH!!!!

I am not referring to a particular person or persons. I am simply saying that loving someone (anyone) and praying for them can be very difficult to do, when they are hurting themself or avoiding truth. It takes humility and tears to love them.

Dont you sometimes wish you could tell a person anything without them judging you or hating you for it... that would be great.
