CANDLELIT CHRONICLES: HISTORIC HAUNTS

Moved AND have PC AND learning Humility

Earlier this evening I was so furious I was spitting nails; I'd discovered that my family members, who had suffered a home fire and had been living in motels for 10 days, with their five young children, had been denied church assistance because of a rumour that they participated in a certain unacceptable activity--the rumour first of all was false, because none of them participate in that, and secondly, served to harm the children because aid was withheld when they so desperately needed a home, heat, and security. I was furious..I am still furious about that and spouting out Scriptures about as fast as I can think. Yet, in the midst of all this, and my decision to leave the community, here I am in a warm new home myself, with for the first time in 14 years, an accessible computer of my own (accessible any time, day or night), safety (no fear of fire or flood), in the best home I'd ever lived in. Humility is the Lesson, my friends-humility and gratitude.
