September 6
We are in the house, voices raised. Joy yells,
"pray." We both kneel. I reach
out to hold her. She pulls back and snaps, "don't touch me, I don't even
like you now." She demands, “Jesus
we can't handle this, we need You now!" Her arms come around me. The anger
subsides and our voices are now soft. We forgive each other. God answers
knee-mail.
"Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put
on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; bearing with
one another, and forgiving one another; even as Christ forgave you, so you must
do. (Colossians 4:13)
