I have a daughter that I know loves me but at the same time resents me greatly. She will come close enough to touch but keeps her distance if you make that last move to touch her. We had an encounter today that ripped me greatly. I have seen her come from a terrible ungodly relationship to find herself and acknowledge that God is leading her and actually giving Him the credit for the change in her life. I acknowledge that change and have done all I felt I could to encourage her and keep her going in the right direction.
Tonight it was her time to come to me and give of herself back to help me through a hard time and she refused. I asked for a hug in return for forgiving a 450 dollar debt she owed me. It has been hard for us but God has kept us going but I felt like she needed to make acknowledgment to me and let me know she cared. She refused. I couldn't believe that she wouldn't swap a hug for relief of this debt. She screamed at me and vented as to how I was making her feel.
It was most unbearable. But, God came and was faithful in calming my spirit. I know that she is trying and I guess I was aggrevated that she seemed to be gaining at my expense. Considering the price Jesus paid for me, It is redeemable. So be it. The debt is forgiven.
