Change of Heart

On Sunday morning I "snapped" at my dad. Whether people would think I had good reason or not is besides the point. I should not be reacting based on people's actions/words, but based on the God whom I serve. (What was that in Counseling classes about Lousy/Blocked goals???). While I recognize this, I am finding it more and more impossible to do. It's like the more I try to have a godly attitude, the more I feel I am being attacked in this very area. And as I recognize this, my only response is to fall to my knees, begging God for His mercy and grace and for a change of heart and attitude on my part.
