When something happens that makes you feel offended and angry it is hard to overcome this feeling. Especially when someone directs some things onto you that affects you personally. This happened to me recently and it sucked big time because I became frustrated, angry and cried my eyes out over the situation. It wasnt the content but the way the thing was treated that made me feel this way. But one thing I did noticed is that there was some perpective in me going through the tears and frustration that are different then I would have handled it before. In the midst of the tears I asked Jesus to help me not be angry, to help me change how I felt. Not how the other person was, but me! Thats the only person that I can take care of, myself! Only can I make the change in myself, or ask God to help me in this. I'm human, but with Him I can change! So I guess that the messege of this post, for me at least is, stop blaming others and continue to strive to fix yourself with God's help, you will have the strength to do so. Bitterness is a nasty thing. It will eat you alive and affect your health.
