Good news from my prayers

So, just recently I asked God to give me wisdom about something in my life. Sure enough, God gave me the wisdom that I needed. This thing that I lacked wisdom of, actually had been hurting me for the longest time. You see I had perceived something that wasn’t true because a dumb kid had told me it was true long ago. Anyways let me tell you what wisdom I lacked that God had just recently taught me.

Telling on people

            I never told on anyone. I never snitched if you may, however, it just dawned on me, and there are things that are okay to snitch at. Like if someone is hurting you, it’s okay to snitch on them. Why would it be okay? Because then you are being safe and you are showing that no one can mess with you.

            The reason why I say this is because for the longest time, I let people hurt me. I let people walk all over me. But now no longer, I recently started telling on everyone who ever hurt me in life. I don’t care, I just started going on a telling spree. Why? Because now I am providing safety for myself. I am tired of people walking all over me, so now I tell on everyone who offends me. I don’t need to suffer from that type of abuse anymore and God wouldn’t approve of it either.

I’ll be real here

            So, there is another factor as to the reason why I never told on anyone. It’s because for the longest time, I felt as if though no one had my back. There are some childhood memories that caused this to happen though. When I was a kid, there was another kid who insulted my mom. He kept going at it and going at it and finally I hit him. So when the teachers got involved and separated us, they said I was the one to blame. I just said that he started it and that he was insulting my mother. When my mom showed up, she just told me to apologize. She had no regard for the fact that some kid had just insulted her and now she’s backing him up. So then right after that, the kid punched me, and the teachers said that he can’t do that. The kid felt so confident that no one had my back that he punched me right in front of my mom and the teachers. Could you believe that? So afterwards when he was insulting me, I just insulted him back and worse too. Oh I had insults a mile long, and sure enough, he got up and flipped the table and so I said, how does it feel?

            I know that this is not the correct way to approach this situation, but I didn’t know any better at the time, I pray that my actions are forgiven because I forgive this kid who said these words. I forgive all the kids who ever hurt me, I just wish that I could get comfort for the wounds that I received all those times that I was alone or all those times when it seemed like the whole world was against me.

Why do I say this?

            I know that there are kids out there who are bullied, I know that other kids might be hurting you or other people might be hurting you but I can honestly say, be strong. Do not cave in to the pressure of an angry heart. Instead of taking revenge on yourself, ask God to take revenge on your enemies, I trust that God takes revenge on my enemies, so I let it be like that. It actually helps a lot with my own emotions. I trust that God takes care of my enemies, so I don’t worry about getting angry, I just try my best to not get angry and lash out.
