Forgiveness
I’m reading Wuthering Heights, again, and the presents of unforgiveness has really jumped out at me. How most of the story is based on the inability to forgive.They all hate Hindley for his oppression over them during childhood and as adults they were never able to forgive him. All the hatred they had stored in their hearts gave them no room to really love or forgive others. Well that’s part of it anyway. It just proves that holding a grudge and wanting revenge will get you no where in life. You need to have a forgiving
eart and put it behind you. The verse from Matthew 18:22 that says to forgive your brother “not seven times, but seventy-seven times” just keeps coming to mind as i continue to read this book. If they would have just forgave the people that had sinned against them their whole lives would have been different. Wuthering Heights is a really great book. The way Emily Bronte wrote this book can make you just fall in love with the characters. It is kinda hard to get through but once i finished it i wanted to read it again!! I hope you will take time to read this book, if you let yourself you can learn alot from it.
SUMMER!!
Can you believe that it is only like nine days until summer?!! that’s so crazy!! This year has gone by so fast! And next year i will be a senior!! wow!! me a senior… ha ha. All the plans for college and a job and all that is really starting to add up. I have a few plans for summer though.. My youth group is going to Tennesee for a mission trip in June so that is going to be fun. Its a mystery trip, so we really don’t know what were going to be doing yet but we do know that we will be able to go to a monastery and talk to some monks. And my family is going to Kentucky also in June to see some family. And my cousin just had baby so we will also be taking a trip up to West Virginia to see them, I believe also in June. And some time during the summer my grandparents are coming from California to stay with us for a while.. So that is pretty much my summer as of now but you never know what will happen!!!
