Confidence in crap

David never bothered to ask because he was confident in his conclusions. I get the confidence thing. I tend to think I'm right all the time AND I usually am HOWEVER after the first misunderstanding where he flew off the handle over not a damn thing, if it were me I would ASK and make sure before I did that again and again!!! Where the hell is this coming from? He wasn't always like this.

I went to bed praying and trying to understand what he felt and how he came to feel the way he did but the more I understand the more annoyed I get. I'm trying to develop compassion here but he wants to believe the worst and it is hard for me to get that. I expect a lot more from him. Once he told me not to expect anything from him.

I can't help it. When someone has the testimony he does it follows that they should act accordingly. I'm not looking for perfection BUT he has taken this waaay too far.

If somehow I can figure out a way to get past my annoyance I will be alright with my father in heaven AND I won't have to interact with him at all to get there. I'm going to pray about that because that temple worthiness question about resolving any problems you have with any people is what was on my mind last night. I don't want my pride to hold me back but I don't want to infringe on his free agency either. I can do this. I am going to resolve this myself. I want people to be patient with me when I make bad choices I have to do the same. I know what I need to do with myself.

I like having righteous indignation. This is NOT what my father in heaven likes. I see that and I will get past this.

Bishop told me last night he never received my form to work in the temple. He told me to call and check with the secretary. It's been over 2 weeks now. Bishop said after he reviews it he sends it to the stake who then turns it in.

I'm going to follow-up with that.
