you can run but you cannot hide

Dear Reader,
     how  many  times  have you  wanted to  just  scream out your frustrations. i mean a  full out  scream.  you  spend all this time  trying to figure out  what's  going on inside your  heart.  and when the  answers  don't  come you just run instead of  holding out  for the  bigger picture. you cave  in  instead of trusting  God.  you  receive  all this  advice  about  what you are  doing  wrong instead of  the  facts.
      I  can't say for  sure  this is  what job  must of felt. i mean  everything  was  taken  from him yet his heart remained  faithful to God.  his  friends  tried to talk him out of his place.  they  must of thought they were right or  something.  I  mean  when you face difficult  situations you  trust your  friends  to  speak words of life  to you.and  then they offer there  opinions makes  you want to scream even more  depends on the circumstance however.  usually  you  want to scream  cause  you  are having an  attitude about  something  silly,but to you  it's  the most  serious  deal ever. whether they are right or wrong  in your  mind  you  only  hear  what you want to hear.  Going  back to job.  he trusted God over his  friends and  he  was  blessed  way more. think about it! when we  fix our  eyes on the things of  man we fall. but when we trust the creator of  heaven and earth we  find  peace even in the  difficult  situations of life.
   Right  now i am  having a  really bad attitude towards  some very specific people in my life. I've been praying and praying Jesus make my heart right. and my heart feels  even more heavier.  I keep having in a way little  tantrums in my mind.  If there is  peace why can't I  feel it  right now is what i keep asking.  Jesus is  always there  maybe the facts  are i have allowed my heart to take on silly offenses and until i deal  then my heart shall remain heavy.  
maybe  like me  you  have  picked up little offenses and until you  take time to deal  with them/ and make sure  when you do deal with them that your  heart  motives are right if not you  will speak out of hurt and anger.  nothing will get solved and you will be more  angry then  when you started. I don't  have any  more answers  for  this at  the moment  except  i  do not enjoy  this  little  attitude  i have towards these  people.  in my  mind i am right but  when it comes to offense  you  need to suck it up no matter how hard it is.and  believe  me it's  easier  said then done.  my  flesh doesn't  want to  suck it up but  my spirit knows that  I need to deal with things.  letting  go of  an offense is  not  in a way  giving up.  it's  humbling  yourself  enough to say  I AM WRONG!!!!!! when it  comes  down to it. if you  don't  deal with the  an offense you  really  just  run away instead of deal with the  situation. there are times  you  really  don't  want to deal with it, it  is to hard.
 Suck  it  up  princess  and  deal  with the issues  at heart before it gets  worse.  (I know this is a little more harsh but it's what needs to be said.)
 this time i have to follow  my own  advice.  even though i don't  want to!!!
