Sometimes, no, often, I read Scripture and recognize a situation in my life that can benefit from the truths I have discovered. But once in awhile I discover a truth for myself and then find its affirmation in Scripture.
In my January 10th post entitled "How to be a Happier Caregiver" I wrote about how I'd discovered that even when my mother is unkind to me, I can emerge from interactions with her feeling content IF I discipline my tongue and respond to her in love. This morning I happened to read the New Living Translation's take on Proverbs 11:17: "...your own soul is nourished when you are kind, but you destroy yourself when you are cruel."
Anyone else get a kind of an "aha moment" from that?
God bless my fellow caregivers today.
Linda
