Day 8: Someone Who Has Made Your Life Hell

So, someone who has made my life hell? 

WOW.

I don't know if I really have an answer for that. I think we allow people to make our lives hell. I think it's a completely conscious choice. We choose how we react to certain situations in life. We may not always react the right way, but it is most certainly a choice.

I've dealt with many difficult people and since this is the 30 days of truth, obviously my husband is one of them. While I do still love him, this whole process could have been so much easier from the start. Way back to accepting a trial separation instead of a divorce. By not taking money out of my personal bank account and closing it behind my back. Then by not trashing some of my belongings. Then by cooperating with returning that money and turning in the divorce papers. They were sent over two weeks ago, about 3 weeks now and I'm still not divorced. That's not me my friends. I don't have the ability to turn them in. It all rests in him.

Another cliche statement, but the devil has certainly made my life hell. There are times in my life where I am closer to God and closer to the devil. There are times when I'm stuck in a tug of war. Right now, I feel like I have Jesus on one shoulder and Satan on another. The devil's voice is so overpowering, it's hard to remember what God has really promised for my life. The devil has absolutely tried to make my life hell.

But in all honesty, I can't really say there is one person who has made my life hell. Like I said, we all CHOOSE to let people affect us or not. I try to choose the latter.
