This has been a trying day... started yesterday and well, just frustrating... My daughter encouraged and admonished me to do better... She said you need to read James... and I did. And I am glad I did.
James 1:2 Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds.....
My exchange student is very much trying my patience. He is not a Christian. He has no faith at all. So I am being stretched out of my comfort zone... Verses 1:2-4
I do not know how to deal with him... Verse 1:5
How do I show this young man the goodness of God... 1:16-18 3:17-18
He pushes my buttons.... Verse 1:19-21
How do I handle things.... Verse 1:22-25
Do I complain to others... Verse 1:26-27 and Verse 2:12-13 Verse 3:1-12 Verse 4:11-12
His entertainment is to argue over everything... Verse 3:17
How do I gain strength... 5:13-16
Thank you Erin for rebuking me... Verse 5:19-20
I don't know whether he has or will be called to Christ... but my desire is to show him the love of Christ and to not be a stumbling block in his path.
