Don't let it get to you (I know its easier said than done). You can't control how they act but you can control how you do. You are answerable to God for what you do and say. Matthew 12 v 37: For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned. *Focus on how you treat people and how your words can build up and encourage . Proverbs 16 v 24 Pleasant words are as a honeycomb*, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones. Try not to get too down on how they react. Hope this helps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is one of the reasons I believe we cannot expect any good from others. Maybe the Lord puts them in our lives for some reason. "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." - Romans 12:21 "not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing." - 1 Peter 3:9 7 hours ago, preciouspearl said: i feel like my life is getting worse and im better off worshiping God in a forest or something "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden." - Matthew 5:14 I have already experienced what you are feeling. Forgive those and focus on what the Lord Jesus taught us. Thank God!

Do not let these people make you feel bad about yourself. I have encountered unfriendly people a lot. I am naturally a friendly person and smile and say hi often. I have been ignored and treated rudely. I have learned that it is not my problem. We make friends and we lose friends in this world. It is very rare that you will have a lifetime friend who will love you unconditionally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some enjoy complaining all the time. A positive attitude on your part can frequently make them angry and lead them to attacking you. Occasionally one can get them to see good sides of things, but I've found it best to avoid those people in general. Spending too much time with these types can affect your own outlook and be mentally draining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you have so many opportunities to develop in this gift of forgiveness, why not talk to the Lord about it and start as an act of your will, saying , "Lord, I forgive them!?" You will find that eventually, the feelings will follow, and it will be very easy to let go of every offense,and walk in love. God bless you as you journey towards the power of forgiveness!
