Proverbs 20:3
3 It's a mark of good character to avert quarrels,
but fools love to pick fights.
Lately I've been picking fights with people at school. In most cases it's just fun but in one case with one particular person I choose that time to pretty much let out my negative feelings toward him in a "joking" manner. I realize it's mean and I pray that I can stop because Jesus loves everyone and I need to at least tolerate and respect everyone.
1 peter 4:1-2
1-2Since Jesus went through everything you're going through and more, learn to think like him. Think of your sufferings as a weaning from that old sinful habit of always expecting to get your own way. Then you'll be able to live out your days free to pursue what God wants instead of being tyrannized by what you want.
I've been feeling this way toward the subject of boys. Well one in particular. I feel like these feelings won't go away; and after a year of having them... nothing has happened. Well I know Jesus didn't go through crushes (correct me if I'm wrong) but I know my patience problems and double guessing GOD is nothing compared to dying on a cross to save humanity. I just need to focus on God. I've been trying that. I've been reading my bible and trying to be a good Christ follower, so why won't these feelings go away?
I think my spiritual gift is wisdom/ administration... if I'm so wise why can't I figure myself out?
