Dear Lord, give me the courage to push back at my mom sometimes. Amen.

Savannah: "Well, that's normal for teenagers [to spend more time with their friends than with their family family]."
Me: "Not with me, but I was an odd one. I only spent time with my family. I didn't trust anybody else."

She laughed like I was joking or exaggerating. It's true, though.

I must be a foreign concept to her.

Forgiveness means praying for the salvation of their souls, not for God's wrath to come on them.

So I guess I haven't quite forgiven my sister?

But it's not that I want her condemned to hell. I don't. But I am so angry sometimes that I wish God would shake her up a little bit to bring her into a face-to-face confrontation with Him, Job style.

Hmm. I don't know.
