To Prune

I was going through a rough patch you see

In my relationship with someone very dear to me .

Angry and resentful I knew that I would either 

Shut this person out or lean on God .

As I prayed , cried and read the Bible .

I experienced God's comfort .

I was reassured of God's deep love for me 

And reminded to find my worth in God .

But something else was at work 

That I was not prepared for at all .

God gently helped me to see 

My wrong attitudes and action toward 

The person who had hurt me 

And showed me how that had caused

Some of her behavior .

I felt God was using this experience to prune me .
