denke...

Something I'm learning, seeing, mulling on.

Sometimes when someone hurts us, or something, and we don't heal properly or get a proper understanding of how to deal with that, we project that on future events or people.

This is not only in huge injustices, but includes the little things to...

More specifically, in my case, for example. One person misunderstands everything I say. After that I am now more careful of what I say to anybody, and then also more sensitive to what people are saying to me. They then react to either my tone of voice, or whatever as I am not so open as before. This then maybe leads to an argument...I am even more careful with people after that.

Now someone misunderstands someone else, or something bigger like my country, or culture, etc. and I feel the need to defend. But all of this could come from the initial being misunderstood.

The solution?

Find my identity in Christ alone... Stop caring what people think. Maybe evaluate if I was at fault, but accept that not everyone will like or understand me. What matters is what God thinks and finding my acceptance only in him...

Facebook Status of the day...

God First,then humility to others above the need to be understood.When will I learn this?
