Make Amends

As I sat there this morning at about 8:45 laying in bed, slowly waking up I reached for my Bible. As I flipped through the advice-filled pages I began to read Galatians. When I got to Chapter 6, I stumbled upon Galatians 6:1... “[Doing Good to All] Brothers and sisters, if someone is caught in a sin, you who live by the Spirit should restore that person gently. But watch yourselves, or you also may be tempted.” This really spoke to me in that right now I'm working on mending my relationship with my older brother and help him become closer with the Lord in the process. I adore him but it's extremely difficult to get along with him most days. I try my hardest to be nice and treat him only with love but GOODNESS it's difficult when all I ever feel is attacked by him. I'm trying to look past what the enemy is putting in my heart right now and if you're reading this, I don't care if I know you or not; pray for me? It would be much appreciated. I have about six months to make it all better before I leave for college and barely see him again. This is my mission. I feel the presence of God working in this situation and it's overpowering sometimes. I feel as if I get knocked down each time I try but I'm not giving up because something keeps picking me back up. I'm going to do this and as a physical reminder, here's this poorly written blog post.
