My Isaac and Ishmael BY: KB © 3.31.15

A friend recently asked if I was angry about a situation that I’d shared. I had to admit that when the situation first “jumped off” I was hotter than chicken grease…but then I had the wherewithal to look at how I placed myself smack dab in the middle of the insanity. Poor choices, poor boundaries, rationalizing and justifying what I knew, deep down in my being, that wasn't for me but I allowed my weaknesses and deficits to speak louder. So I had no right to be angry….if I was angry it should be with me!


I then took the thoughts a step further and asked myself….how could I preach Christ and harbor resentment…the two cannot exist in the same home….like Isaac and Ishmael  (Genesis 16)

…..sometimes you just have to exhale and thank God you lived to tell about it!!!
