“Lord, help me to bless people today.”

That’s my daily morning prayer… uh, when I’m happy.

And usually, I am.

But once in awhile, I don’t wake up happy.

And usually, it’s because of a difficult person in my life.

That’s when I pray, “Lord, how can I bless this… this… this… creature?”

I’m a very patient person, so this doesn’t happen too often.

But it happens.

Friend, do you have a difficult person in your life?

And do you sometimes want to pray, “Lord, if you will allow it, let a 50,000 megawatt bolt of lightning strike (Name of Difficult Person) right now. Not to kill him, Lord. Just enough to wake him up and give him second degree burns. Just kidding Lord, but with all due respect, what were you thinking when you created this pathological human being? I don’t want to sound offensive, but were you sleeping on the job when you created this creature? He’s a mess. He’s a composite of all the villains of Spiderman put together….”

Do you sometimes wonder if this difficult person heard God in the middle of the night say, “My child, your ultimate mission in life is to be difficult. That’s the entire purpose of your existence. You shall be the thorn in someone’s flesh. Do everything in your power to annoy him. Be irresponsible. Or be demanding. Or be totally negative. Or be selfish. Or be constantly angry. Or be possessive. Or be always depressed. It doesn’t matter. Your objective is to make his life hell on earth.”

Yes, I must admit that I don’t like a few unlovable characters here and there, but generally, I think the Almighty has done a fantastic job inventing human beings.

I also believe that God allows difficult people to come into our lives to give us very special gifts. What could these gifts be?

I’m going to try something new today. Instead of writing down what these gifts are, I’m going to ask YOU to write them on the comments below. Write your thoughts and experiences and share them to the world. Thousands will be reading them. And in my next email next week, I’ll tell you what I think they are…

Cool?

Thank you!

May your dreams come true :-)

    We all meat people who is hard to be with, but, when that happened to me I try to think like this “H/She is send to me so I can practice to not lose my temper” That is hard sometimes ;-)

    i do have those people around me all the time. but i have a choice. i could either be reacting to them negatively or i could do exactly what Jesus wanted me to do. i could ask myself in a specific situation, “what would Jesus do?” see, it’s really hard to stay focus and do good and love these unlovable, annoying people. i must admit that i do lose my cool sometimes. but reacting the way God wanted us to is a continuous learning process. we need God’s grace all the time. i should know, i sometimes feel and ask God, “Lord, are you really that mad at me that you surround me with all these “good for nothing, pieces of sh*t” type of people? (i don’t say that out loud but that’s what i wanted to say in my head, forgive me) the bottom line is, we have a choice. and with that in mind, we ought to choose life and choose God. it’s hard, but we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us.

    be blessed! =)

    I have thought and felt exactly what you described. I usually do not mention my blog when I comment on other sites, but I have a post called “Is LOVE ever enough?” that you might like to read. The site is http://securityforidiots.blogspot.com/
    Take care. Let me know what you think.

    And our goal, as a child of God, is to treat others with I Corinthians 13 (Love) no matter how challenging it might be. That is where we show the world His light within us.

    What goes around comes around.

    Blessings,
