\\nOver the last few weeks we\\u2019ve been talking about ways that we avoid dealing with our resentments.\\xa0 We can resort to blaming, we can shame ourselves, we can even try to punish those who are in a better place than us.\\xa0\\xa0
\\nSometimes, though, when situations out of our control wreak havoc in our lives, we can engage in something known as \\u201cRuminating\\u201d.\\xa0 When you start wondering if\\xa0something out there may be conspiring against you?\\xa0 Was it bad luck?\\xa0 Was it God who caused it or allowed it to happen?\\xa0 Did you\\xa0do something that upset something or someone and that’s why it happened? Initially the inquiry can start out as an attempt to alleviate the pain, but it often ends up just amplifying our suffering, causing resentment to deepen.
\\nThis Sunday, we’re going to explore this age-old tendency along with a healthy alternative.\\xa0\\xa0We hope you’ll join us.
