Max Lucado:  ” God gives us more by going deeper than we ask.  He wants not only your whole heart – He wants your heart whole.  Why?  Hurt people hurt people.  Think about it why do you fly off the handle?  Why do you avoid conflict?  Why do you seek to please everyone?  Might your tendencies have something with an unhealed hurt in your heart.  God wants to help you for your sake.”

The other night driving home from a restaurant, a man in a van kept cutting us off.  We tried to ignore him but to no avail.  The next thing I knew he was besides us, rolled down his window & threw a cup full of gooey stuff at us.  We ignored him as it is dangerous to react to someone’s anger.  I looked in the rear view mirror & he had pulled over & beckoned us to stop & say something.  Ignore him, I said.  We did. As we did nothing – just driving home.  I wondered if this person had some unhealed past hurt he never dealt with….”I have always said when one stuffs feelings, they eventually will come out….”  Much better to have a confidant that you trust & talk it out or write a letter to Jesus & tell him about your hurt feelings……I promise you, you will feel better.
