Okay so I recall a few months ago Brent blogging about learning to accept being wrong even when he felt like he was right or something along those lines, well I have to write about my own version, It all started out tonight at work, well for those of you who do not know Darin and I both work at the same job in a duplex, we work the graveyard shift and he works on one side of the duplex and I work the other. Well for the last year since I have worked here his side has had cable and mine has not, well the boys over here have been wanting to get it and since we have a new PC they were told that it would be looked into. Well one of the boys on the other side decided to hook this side up to the cable they have on their side and in the process found out that the cable that they are getting is pirated from the neighbors next door, so for the past couple of days we have had cable. The thing is Darin has had cable and has watched it to help get through the night for the past year and there was always the underlying thought that the cable was not being paid for legally, when the boy hooked it up over here, we let the landlord, the PC and the Regional Manager all know about the pirated cable and they never told us to unhook it. Well tonight happens to be one of my double shifts and I only got a couple hours of sleep before going to my shift this afternoon at 2pm, so I was counting on that cable to help keep me awake, anyways I started to watch cable right after we got done with scripture study and a couple of minutes into it the cable went out, then Darin comes to my side and says he unhooked it, keep in mind his side is not unhooked even though he says he is not going to watch it, not only was I upset because I am tired and planned on watching it, I was hurt because of the lack of thought towards me and when I voiced my displeasure alls he could say was he was just trying to do the right thing. Well I know deep down inside I am wrong, but I was fighting the natural man inside of me and I was really mad. I know that this is a tempral thing and not even important at that, so why am I letting it bother me? As I try to humble myself I realize that it is Satan trying his best to put a wedge in between my sweet husband and I because he does not like it when we are doing good things and gratefully some very good things are happening in our lives that he does not like. So with that said I shall go apologize to my husband and have sweet heart prayers which by the way I have put off because of my wickedness, thanks for letting me voice my frusterations with myself.

Humility!!

Good job at recognizing it. That's the hardest part. I would have been really mad too. it's always the hardest part to decide you are in the wrong though and then admit it.
