[Glorlesk]

I can't even wash clothes anymore without problems. We have garbage washing machines here that overflow with water, and they don't dry right and I have to hang them up and it takes 3 days to dry{at least,} Disgusting. Oh I forgot, I'm supposed to count it all joy and call this a good experience. Sorry, ostrichism isn't for me. I can't phony it up and say bad is good. I'm not an ostrich. If something goes against me, I call it as such.

listen to this one ...aren't we glad for the boulders that were supposed to hit us were prevented by God

But a steady stream of small but irritating things, are, , if constant,{ and while seeing unsaved people avoid them} frustrating.And the boulders--figurative--in the past,I did pretty much avoid the "more serious' things, but lately the bottom seems to have fallen out. That's as it is, but then if we express satisfaction about it,the standard answer is, we're supposed to be brimming over with happiness about it.{not in those exact words}.But in Psalms we read,"There is a time for everything, a time to rejoice, a time to mourn, a time to laugh, a time to cry. It didn't say,one emotion, happiness, every minute of every day, and if we admit we;re disapointed about how things are going that we've commited the worst sin.Jesus said,"In the world you will have tribulation". He didn't say, like some Christians, it's "our own fault" .I'v e made mistakes that caused me headaches, but I've also had things happen that were just unfairness from living in the fallen world. Also, if I were to come on here saying everything is alright when it's not, or that I'm happy with the fact that things are consistently going against me I would be lying. But this is not just a "Christian thing", I see this amongst the unsaved , too.We're to be prohibited from admitting, under any circumstances, that things aren't going to our preferences.I think it's like "if I don't admit I got defeated in something,it never happened." But I'm too honest to do that.I'm just being honest, but because it goes against their "way", they throw stones.
