| i read something in my devotion book, "The Power of a Praying Teen" by Stormie Omartian, in the summer, and i thought to post a part of it....because it might be useful now and/or in the future...
most of the time we know when we havent forgiven someone. we feel it in our heart. we dont want to forgive that person because what they did to us hurt a lot and we want them to pay for it in some way. and that ends up making us miserable. If you realize you havent forgiven someone for something, confess it to God. and remember that FORGIVING SOMEONE DOESNT MAKE THEM RIGHT; IT MAKES YOU FREE. in other words, when you forgive a person, it doesnt justify what they did. its not saying that what they did wasnt wrong or hurtful. its saying that you want to let go of it completely and move on with your life. if you dont, youll end up stuck right where you are and feeling that you are not getting anywhere. sometimes we can be unforgiving toward someone and not even recognize it. we THINK we are forgiving, but we really arent. in order to make sure that doesn happen to you, you need to ask God to show you the truth about yourself. say, "Lord, show me if there is anyone i have not forgiven." then, when a person comes to mind who has said or done something hurtful to you, confess it ot the Lord and ask Him to help you get free of it. you will feel so good when you get that heavy weight of unforgiveness off your shoulders.

| Praise report!!!!....
I went for my interview today....and my training day is Aug 1...so I guess that means I have a new job? lol. I wasn't as scared as my other interviews...I think it's because I put it in God's hands this time. I remember that God didn't want me to get the first SF job I went for because He had a better plan for me...on my second SF interview...I succeeded and they liked me...God had the plan to put me there...most of them were Christians and they were flexible with my school hours....so for this interview...I told God that if He didn't want me to have this job...it's okay because I knew He would have a better plan for me like with SF. So praise God! um...and they didn't test me with carrying textbooks lol...and God was watching over me for that too...because He knows I'm not that strong and I would probably break my back or something cus I'm weird like that....anyways....I'm going to be a cashier...not a textbook person. w00t lol. also...in my interview...I told the lady how I realized that a gentle voice would lessen the angry they have...sounds familiar??? lol...well its in proverbs!!! lol.....well anywho..thanks for those who prayed for me lol.
