In many ways you getting the opportunity to be irritated, is how you get past irritations.  We are who we are for a reason.  In our submitted life to Christ so many of these things make sense.

As I look over this again from the other day, I am filled with Joy to see how the Spirit is working through you.  Instead of allowing condemnation to make you feel bad about yourself for not, "getting in line; sucking it up and conform."  You are gaining the Wisdom needed to become, that Daughter of The Most High, He created and you desire to be.  By see what you want or don't want, "constant arguments,  to keep my irritation at bay, I don't want to be a complainer."  So many times we just avoid, the work needed to be that Child God wants us to be.  We avoid it by, "sucking it up; just paint that smile on, etc.."  When we put on that act to make others happy, yet inside we are unhappy and feel God wanting us to be real.  So instead of pretending, we yield; humble ourselves before The Lord.  By dealing with things this way, we gain that Wisdom; we receive the desires of our heart because,  we are considering God, and allowing the Spirit to lead us.  " asking God to work on that,  But I do what I have to do.  I have to be me or I will never get a handle on irritation."  By asking God this shows your heart, by taking steps to avoid the conflict at the same time, " I keep the situations that cause it at bay,  reading my Bible), learn to not be so irritated,  I have to be me or I will never get a handle on irritation."   I am just filled with Joy, to see how you are working your Faith out, and taking the steps to let Jesus Shine through you.  

And, Char you and yours are in our thoughts and Prayers, as I Trust the weather does not create any serious problems for you, Mike, and the rest of your family.  Bless you Sister.

Amen.  We will continue to lift you and yours up to The Lord.  In Jesus Name I believe you will begin to see many things turn around for you, Mike, and the rest of your family.  His Peace will calm any and all fears, both fears of the known and unknown.  His Grace and Mercy will continue to guard and lead you and the rest of us.  For we are all part of your family.  And, we also put our Trust in His Wisdom, as He Guides us through any and all obstacles.  For since we Know we are Loved by The Creator, we also Know whatever we go through His Love for us never dims.  Char I am Believing you will begin to see a truly complete Healing in your family.  For since I have known you now a little over a year.  I can bare witness to how Jesus is being Glorified through your desire to serve Him.

Or perhaps the other way around.  As you know Choco we are Family, and I am a fan of yours.  I am interested in the things you have to share, or the things you think and feel.  I simply want to reassure you that, you are important.  Important to Jesus, to The Spirit, of course to The Father, and to so many of us here.  I have been so happy to be around when, you have been in chat or in any discussions.  I believe Jesus has and continues to have, many things to share through you to the rest of us.

You posted this twice I think. Anyways, with that said, others expectations they have of us is always higher then the same expectations that they have for themselves. Many plank-eyed saints - and I can be added to that list.

I thought I had deleted one of these.  Char and I were on "chat" and well people shared on both.  So this was not a test, or my way of messing with anyone.  I am sure others noticed it, yet you were the only one who said anything about it.  I am just glad I use to be a carpenter, so I have lots of saws and tools to deal with extra lumber.
