Anger. After last night’s small group, God revealed in me of things that I need to change. Road rage is one of them. My “road rage” days have changed. I would cut people off and/or tailgate them if they did me wrong but now, I just scream out at them in Cantonese. I agree that’s it’s not a healthy way of dealing with my wounded ego to the person to cut me off but that’s my initial reaction. Maybe next time when that happens, I should pray for them because maybe they’re rushing to go somewhere like to the hospital to see their child born, or what if they’re late for a doctor’s appt? We don’t know what’s going on in others’ lives since our society teaches us to focus on our own needs. We should stop looking at ourselves and look to Jesus as our example. When he was nailed on the cross and people were pursecuting him, He’s still prayed for us. He cried out to His Father asking for forgivness for the leaders and the people who didn’t know who He truly is. What an awesome and amazing God we have! A good reminder is the song by Sawyer Brown, “They don’t understand”.
On another note, I handed Isaac a mini brownie last night while he was leaving. He was super cute. Before I handed him the brownie, I asked him if he would like one and after I gave it to him, he gave me the biggest thank you that I have yet receive. He said, “oh thank you” like he’s never had a dessert before. It was so adorable!! I love when kids at that age. So innocent and precious!
