Just want to point out, though; that there is a PROCESS (steps which take time) to healing. But Jesus is the answer and He ultimately brings complete healing; bringing Him glory, giving us an awesome testimony and the ability to be - as you said - an encouragement & help to others.
Sure. There's always the "buts". My post wasn't meant to be fully comprehensive.

Hope it will be a help maybe to someone.

You have no idea the sheer volume of self control that it is taking to keep my teeth clenched together at this point. If the words in my mind were counted, I just earned about 87 infractions.

I need to stop typing now, or they are gonna spew out all over the place.

see that, the scripture really is life giving when it says...

be swift to hear and slow to speak.

your day has a much better set of possible outcomes when in a moment of anxiousness you paused, considered and then spoke with gentle words.

yeah for Mich!

yea this is true. however what thepew said is also true. you took the time to consider before you lashed out in a way you might regret, and responded in a meaningful way that address the situation quite well.


good for you!
