Please pray for me. I won’t go into details, but I was “verbally scourged” by a priest that I have been working with in a ministry. There is another lady who works with us. I haven’t been spoken to that harshly in 30 years, and I really don’t know exactly why. He accused me of doing something that I was not and the fact that I apparently asked too many questions on a subject that I guess he didn’t have an answer.

That was last Saturday, and I still feel really decimated and very hurt by his words. I am not angry with him, just taken aback by this. Please pray that my peace returns to me.
 
I was just reading about how hurtful words can be in James…these words when this type originate in hell and unfortunately they can come from all of us. The hurt is hard to take, even when we understand that the other person might be under some stress when saying them. That is my guess although I don’t know as to what might have happened. Forgive him as we all are in deep need of this. (even priests) We are also forgiven for our sins as we forgive others. (Lord’s prayer) When it’s hard to forgive just say “I forgive ___ in the Name of Jesus” and continue doing so that way and pray for their well being. It’s amazing how God uses this to help them and us:)

My prayers for you this morning. I’m sorry for your hurt and believe me we’ve all been there.

My love in Him,

Lord, please heal Lakotak and flood him with your peace and fatherly love. Help him to pray for this priest who hurt him whenever he begins to hurt again. He will be gaining great merit for himself and will be helping this priest in the best way possible. Thank you, Lord, for hearing my prayer.
