Sometimes we can sacrifice our peace and joy only to hold bitterness toward somebody because they may have offended us in some way and may had not even realized it. We need to learn to let things go that aren't worth holding onto. If someone does something that happens to hurt our feelings and we react to it and say something or do something in revenge that won't get too far either. How about when the person does something to us and instead of reacting,we act in a different manner? Such as let us be the first to apologize regardless of who started it or who was wrong. It's not about who was right and who was wrong. Swallow your pride, be loving and just apologize. You may surprise the person when you do apologize because they may expect you to act in another way. But, why not surprise them? Be the first to apologize.
Leviticus 26:19 (AMPLIFIED)
And I will break and humble your pride in your power, and I will make your heavens as iron [yielding no answer, no blessing, no rain] and your earth [as sterile] as brass.
Psalms 10:4 (NLT)
The wicked are too proud to seek God. They seem to think that God is dead.
Psalms 10:4 (AMPLIFIED)
The wicked one in the pride of his countenance will not seek, inquire for, and yearn for God; all his thoughts are that there is no God [so He never punishes].
