norman here. uh was just thinking about ps aaron's message, about unforgiveness. and i realised unforgiveness can come in many forms, not just in the usual, you hurt me, i dont forgive you kind. but it can also come in a form of bitterness, as in i see that guy's face i dont like him, that in a way is unforgiveness too. unforgiveness can also come in such a mild form you dont even realise its there, but its there. and its probably hindering us from delving further into the presence of God.
for me, my unforgiveness is aimed at my baby brother. noel, as it turns out, might be slightly autistic. a lot of signs have appeared to be showing that. and my mum has sat down and chatted with my older brother and i, talking to us about the future and all that. and it seemed i bore some sort of bitterness at noel, even though i did NOT know it. because when i thought of the things i'd have to go through, a touch of self-centredness here, then i guess i sort of 'blamed' him for it, even though he has nothing to do with it and no one should be blamed.
i think God worked in my life during the altar call, and i think this unforgiving nature should be dissipating, but i guess i could still use some prayer.
on another note, i think that when we pray for people's hearts to be softened, we should not go about it in such a way where we fault them. its not their fault to have believed in the 'wrong' thing, but rather we should respect them for having such strong faith in what they believe in. we should learn from them, from their faith in their belief, and win their hearts for christ through love.
hmm i hope i got the right thing across.. if anything seems wrong here please notify me haha. they're just my thoughts, i never counter-checked them with anyone.
