That's so scary and nerve-wracking when you're in the middle of things.<br />My lesson is to get ALL the cash up front before you sell your car ... don't feel sorry for the pregnant lady & her boyfriend who will pay you in "installments" over "x" amount of time. So ... yeah ... lots of awkward phone calls, late payments, my insurance still on the car, having to go back to pick up the car ... NOT worth it. I shouldn't have jumped at them wanting to buy it. I should have waited for the next person to come along who had all the cash. You can't be nice like that to people anymore ... or trust them much either.All in His Perfect Timinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00300978285191861049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188371109810549420.post-29321232490659626172012-06-10T12:39:58.649-05:002012-06-10T12:39:58.649-05:00My lesson also has to do with debt and student loa...My lesson also has to do with debt and student loans. That is what is tying me down and keeping me from realizing certain goals. Hopefully those goals can still be realized, it just might take longer until I pay off my loans. And that's a difficult thing.<br />Yes, the Holy Spirit must be helping you to not be angry at that woman. We all need more of the Holy Spirit! There is always an "anger button," so pray for that woman's healing, for something must have happened for her to become angry like that.Liannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06934870175902748924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188371109810549420.post-64397176157022055982012-06-10T05:34:53.788-05:002012-06-10T05:34:53.788-05:00I'm glad you reached a settlement, though it s...I'm glad you reached a settlement, though it sounds like the entire situation was scary and stressful. Like you said, the Holy Spirit has your back.<br /><br />My brother goes to work and each day there is a woman there who harasses him about the Catholic Church. She asks him questions, only to bate him and try to get him in a debate so that she can vent her anger about the Catholic Church. Funny thing is, at one time, she was a pretty devout Catholic. Something must have happened. <br /><br />My own personal experience (in answer to your question but also in regards to people and their anger) is that the more you give in to anger, the angrier you will be. It's the worlds way of saying that "venting" is an outlet for us, but I've been learning that venting is not always good. It's simply appeasing and gratifying the anger we're feeling inside. Anger has to be resolved first in prayer, I think , and "vented" before God, who can give us the grace to overcome it and resolve the issue. Talking your problems out in order to find a solution is one thing but venting is another.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10451590537173713861noreply@blogger.com
