Thanksgiving For Prayers Received

[OnlySunshine]

Thank you to all who prayed for me. I feel like I have relinquished most of the hatred and anger towards my aunt for the argument we had a week ago. The Eucharist was definitely a help. I still hold some negativity but it is nothing like it was before. I felt truly horrible about the way I was feeling and I don't think anyone deserves such thoughts. Thankfully, they were never revealed to my aunt or anyone else, so I didn't sin. But such thoughts made me very uncomfortable to the point that I thought I was sinning and then was scrupulous afterward. I realized that I wasn't sinning because you cannot sin in your thoughts unless it is with lust. Even though the thoughts were bad, I never agreed to them and prayed to get rid of them. I plan to go to Confession this Wednesday and I hope that the last bit of negativity I have left will be let go.

If you could please pray for me, I'd appreciate it. I haven't seen my aunt in a week since our argument and I have to see her this Sunday at Church. She won't be riding with us or sitting with us, but I will still see her since we are both serving as EMHCs. Please pray that no ill feelings come up when I do see her again. I don't want to harbor any negative thoughts towards her anymore.

I would also appreciate prayers for my aunt's conversion of heart. She still believes she did nothing wrong, but she is a classic toxic person (she meets the definition completely) that she doesn't take any responsibility for her actions. I don't like seeing her act this way. Please pray that she can realize what she does hurts people and pushes people away. She always remarks how she is lonely, but doesn't realize why.

Thanks again.
