My Struggle

You ever have a neighbor that is really hard to be around? I am not just talking about a few struggles, but it is always an issue? I am dealing with that in my life right now. NOTHING SEAMS TO BE RIGHT IN THIS NEIGHBORS LIFE! She gets upset at noises when we live on a really busy street. Our other neighbors do not complain about this issue she has, just her. She has called the cops on almost every neighbor around us, and even the neighbor on the other side of our house (a street, our house then theirs). She told me today that "she did not want to talk to me about it because she could not trust me". I don't understand... I have the struggle to get really upset inside. I do not show it on the outside, but on the inside I am a wreak!

I did have a breakthrough today though... I asked God to give me strength to realize where I might be wrong, but the rest let go. Even if this issue was "taken care of" in her mind, there would just be something else that she would complain about. I have to realize that it is not me, but it is her. She lives a very dark and lonely life, and has rejected all attempts to share the light of Jesus to her. I just (I don't know why I say 'Just') find myself praying for her.
