I must be growing up...!!

Well I was not going to post about this but I just cant help myself!! God is so good and sometimes I hate that it is taking so long to understand that. Today I totally did something that I usually don't do until its too late......I confronted that nasty spirit of "gossip"...or you could label it as that spirit that causes Anger to fester......Generally in the past I would just let my anger build up and never really confront what or who was bothering me.  This time I decided that I was NOT going to let that take a hold of me and make me sin!! Yes when things bother us and we DONT confront it; it opens a door to some pretty nasty spirits. I refuse to let them control who I am or what GOD has for me. I even did good controlling my emotions....I am very emotional but sometimes I think that makes me seem weak...It was very hard to control but I did good overall. I only shed one or two tears.......As I was having this conversation I realized that there was some misunderstanding however I was big enough to let them know if they ever wanted to know just ask. Don't get me wrong I love that people worry about me and my family but sometimes there is just misunderstanding...Also through this process I could see there was a reason that person feels the way they do but then again that is between them and God. So proud of me!! I think I am growing up a little! Feels great so now I can let go of that and know its settled and IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL!!! PRAISE GOD!
