Good advice. I have found the hard way that praying for those who are difficult can help my attitude toward them (even if they never change one iota.) I do need to work on being patient and forgiving!
There was a time some years back when the Lord dealt with my impatience by seemingly sending difficult people my way. How I reacted to them became a mirror to my own faults He wanted to deal with. It was eye-opening and painful, but in time I realized they weren't as difficult as I was!
It is still a challenge with some people, by God's grace and patience with me, it's better.
I don't have any strategies...but I trust God.
Very good advice. Difficult people really are everywhere. Many of them have no idea they're difficult people.
Love it, Chris. I did a series on Facing Your Giants. https://www.iomamerica.net/galatian-series
