As of lately, I've been dealing with something. It has nothing to do with stress or any sorts of relationship between a man and wife. But it has to do with people. To understand me, I have to give my account of my life. I will try to sum it up in very short paragraphs as to, it's a very long journey I've had.
As I was 17, God called me out of my house, and I left to serve him. I left mom, dad, family, and just walked out the door. Jesus pointed to where my direction should be, and he made a way for me to live with a stranger that I don't even know. With this stranger, I found out, he was a youth pastor. The youth pastor worked for a church, that was huge in upbringing within the city. As I live with him, I'm not the only person who there. His home was used for delinquent teenagers to change their life or that was court ordered to live there. I find myself in a place with teenagers and people that constantly provoked my faith. They harassed me, accused me, hated me, and treated me as if I was "Mr. Holy." I get called names such as, "Self righteous, holy man, and bow down to Jesus (mocking me.)"
I wonder why God would call me to such a place, to get harassed, and hated within a church. The holy Spirit was with me through all out of this, and he never left me. It was the only reason I could of stay there, and made it out. Without him, I would of never made it through. Through this, I've learned how stiff neck and hardhearted people can be. Especially Gods own people. I finally got out of the place, and I was a change man. Holy Spirit showed me that what ever I learned in that place in 3 years, it would take a regular Christian 30 years to learn.
Fast forward, to today. My heart has become bitter and angry. Instead of dealing with people of God within that church who harassed me, now I am dealing with unbelievers in this magnitude. It was hard dealing with my brother and sisters who hated me daily. But the grief and hatred that unbelievers bring me, is causing me to be bitter. Why am I bitter about them? Because their attitude towards me, they form in groups to harass one person, and try to strip his dignity out of him. As of today, I can tell you, I've never seen a more godless generation in my life. I understand now how they could of killed Jesus and hated him for no reason. Because these people are ignorant, and full of hatred. They delusional themselves to believe they are love, and they are caring. But inside, they are full of darkness, and are voided.
I find myself fighting back because of my anger and bitterness. Instead of walking away, I find myself, cursing back and holding my grounds. Not only has they caused me grief, they try to strip away whatever you have left in your life. They dig to find what you are doing, and in a job, they will harass your managers to try to get you fired. A good friend on this forum told me, "not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers." I don't hang around with unbelievers much. But even when I'm playing video games or online. I find myself facing these people ONLINE.
As to why it seems so weird, but this has caused me to become bitter. I feel this anger inside me building up, as if, I want to physically start fighting these people, these hypocrites who inject themselves at others as if they're superior, and without fault.
