I too find it easy to hold grudges, but in reading my 5 year olds's devotions to him I have been so struck by the parable of the unmerciful servant, where the king forgave him a huge debt but then the servant turned around and would not forgive his friend a tiny debt. I don't want to be like that. It is hard, but it sounds like you are doing the right thing! Good luck with the lady next time you go to the library!CharityVLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01184364975188612954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5323656814585351978.post-74670584116862151302010-04-13T09:26:28.038-05:002010-04-13T09:26:28.038-05:00First of all, you can get kicked out of a play gro...First of all, you can get kicked out of a play group???

I would choose to ignore her because chances are she hasn't changed and I wouldn't want to "subject" myself to her again. I wouldn't go out of my way to avoid her, I just wouldn't acknowledge her. Does that make sense? I'm about to move, I'm nervous!<br /><br />Tell your friend "Jane", that I'm glad she refrained from pulling her "dirty, frosted hair" out!!!

I can't believe how rotten some people can be. I totally get how you felt by not saying anything at all, but it was the best way to handle it - she probably would have loved a nasty reaction from you. Your dad was right, God does everything for a reason and you will be better off in the end. And it never fails that what goes around comes around.<br />LizSweetwater Savingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10540754153785842554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5323656814585351978.post-9404187389021656142010-04-09T07:45:32.288-05:002010-04-09T07:45:32.288-05:00Can you imagine what she will feel if you walk up ...Can you imagine what she will feel if you walk up next to her and just say, "hi". Sounds like an awesome idea to me. And maybe she'll realize she made a mistake, or not and you'll be the better one for it! Good for you Katie...but I'll still hold her down while you slap her if you want!

I call that "high school" syndrome, you'll always have people who are perpetually stuck in the high school mindset. <br /><br />This also reminds me of Romans 12:20 - "If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head."<br /><br />When I was younger I used to think that "you will heap burning coals on his head" meant you'll drive your enemy crazy, (which I was like, Yeah!) but now knowing that this doesn't really follow the spirit of the scripture (and after reading the little notes at the bottom of the Bible)I found out that this instead means that through your kindness you'll lead them to repentance for their actions. <br /><br />Good luck :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07042717342913703372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5323656814585351978.post-25602866250161207332010-04-08T10:48:11.504-05:002010-04-08T10:48:11.504-05:00Wow that stinks.

I would have wanted to do the same thing to her, but wouldn't have because I have no guts, not because I'm as forgiving as you are.
