So, my “new” sister-in-law has caused a huge family rift, dividing me from my brother (who was also my best friend for the last 25 years) and splitting off a beloved aunt from him and my parents. I want to forgive her, since I know that would be helpful to me, not to mention the right thing to do…but really, I just about hate her. It makes me nauseous just to write this because I have to think about her. So, see, I obviously need to forgive and forget!
So, here’s my step one:
Starting today, I am going to write down one nice thing about her on a list that I’ll keep for 30 days. I’m also going to commit to praying for her EVERY DAY (and not one of those, “Oh Lord please change her” prayers either! A for real, bless her Lord prayer!)
I’ll let you know when I come up with a step 2!
