Reflection

Reflection

Today’s blog is doubling as a vent.  I have a person that is close to me that needs help.  So, we help and advise and direct as best we can.  The problem is that they will not listen and continue to do things their way and in turn make life harder on themselves and on those trying to care for them.  It is infuriating at times.  Today is one of those days.

The twist comes when I tell God my frustration and He in turn says, “Yeah, I know the feeling!”  If I am being unclear here, He is talking about me!  

What is it that makes us so bent and determined to not listen to good advice?  What makes us think we know better than God?

I don’t know the answer.  Today I am frustrated, but I will let my frustration draw me to God and I will do my best to repent and be better at hearing Him.
