stop ### from droning on and on

Beloved of All
about a book he wants me to work on. He doesn't know what he's talking about and I get so angry. Please let us find an editor or a reader who can help end the battle. Thank you in Jesus' name.
 
We understand your frustration, and we commend you for seeking a godly resolution to this challenge. The Bible reminds us in Proverbs 15:1, *"A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger."* While your feelings are valid, it’s important to guard your heart against anger, for Ephesians 4:26-27 warns, *"Be angry, and don’t sin. Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath, and don’t give place to the devil."* Your frustration could open a door for bitterness or unkindness, so we encourage you to surrender this irritation to the Lord and ask Him for patience and wisdom in how to respond.

It’s clear that this person is passionate, but as you’ve noted, there may be a lack of clarity or direction in their approach. Instead of allowing resentment to build, we suggest you prayerfully consider how to address this with both honesty and grace. Proverbs 19:20 advises, *"Listen to counsel and receive instruction, that you may be wise in your latter end."* Perhaps this individual would be open to constructive feedback if presented in a humble and respectful manner. You might say something like, *"I appreciate your enthusiasm for this project, and I want to see it succeed. I think bringing in an editor or a fresh set of eyes could help streamline the process and bring more focus to the work. Would you be open to exploring that option together?"* This approach honors their vision while gently steering the conversation toward a solution.

If they remain resistant, remember that you are not obligated to continue in a situation that breeds frustration without resolution. Colossians 3:23 reminds us, *"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men."* If this project is causing more strife than fruitfulness, it may be wise to prayerfully consider whether your involvement is the best use of the gifts God has given you. Seek His guidance in this, asking for discernment about whether to continue, step back, or redirect your efforts elsewhere.

As for finding an editor or reader, we will lift this up in prayer, trusting that the Lord will provide the right person to bring clarity and closure to this endeavor. He is faithful to equip His people for the work He calls them to, and if this book is part of His plan, He will supply the necessary resources. *"Commit your works to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed"* (Proverbs 16:3).

Let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You with this situation that has become a source of frustration and weariness. We ask for Your peace to guard our sister’s heart and for Your wisdom to guide her words and actions. Lord, if this project is aligned with Your will, we pray that You would bring the right editor or reader into the picture—someone who can provide the structure and insight needed to move forward effectively. Give our sister the courage to speak the truth in love and the grace to step back if this is not where You are leading her. We rebuked any spirit of confusion or stubbornness that may be hindering progress, and we ask for unity and clarity to prevail. May Your will be done in this matter, and may all involved seek to honor You above their own ideas or ambitions. We pray this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

Finally, we encourage you to examine your own heart in this. Are there lessons the Lord might be teaching you through this trial—perhaps in patience, communication, or setting godly boundaries? James 1:2-4 tells us to *"count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. Let endurance have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing."* Trust that the Lord is refining you even in this, and lean on Him for strength. If anger continues to be a struggle, ask the Holy Spirit to fill you afresh and replace irritation with His peace. You are not alone in this—He is with you, and we are standing with you in prayer.
 
Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.

Be a Prayer Warrior: “Praying for others”
 
We've been thinking about your situation and wanted to chime in with some thoughts. It's clear that you're passionate about this project, and that's a great thing! But it seems like there's a bit of a roadblock, and that can be frustrating. We've been there too, you know?

We think it might help to try and understand where the other person is coming from. Maybe they're excited about the project but haven't quite figured out how to express that in a way that's helpful. It could be that they're overwhelmed and need some clarity, or perhaps they're just not seeing things from the same perspective.

Why don't we try to approach this like we would a conversation with a friend? Instead of focusing on what they're not doing right, let's try to find common ground. Maybe you could say something like, "I really appreciate your enthusiasm for this book. I think it has so much potential. Have you considered how an editor or a fresh set of eyes could help bring out the best in it?"

Remember, we're all on the same team here. We all want this project to succeed, right? So let's try to work together, even if that means stepping back a bit and letting someone else take the lead in certain areas.

And hey, if all else fails, let's just pray about it. We believe that God has a plan for this book, and He'll provide the right person to help make it happen. In the meantime, let's trust that He's working things out, even when we can't see it.

Keep your chin up, and remember, we're all in this together. Let's keep the lines of communication open and trust that the Lord will guide us. We're praying for you!

Stop neighbors from stalking and harassing and following us when we're doing errands and stop them from speaking witchcraft and tossing cursed nails and rotted food in our yard and on our window sill.
