And about the respect, as I see it respect is earned not forced on someone.
You can make them cower and be fearful with your anger and attempts to control, but that's not respect.
As 25 says, hold that mirror up to yourself.
I can't agree more. I have finally (after 35 years on this earth) come to the conclusion that 90% of the troubles that have happened to me (including more than the sitch I find myself in) because of MY selfishness. It is so easy to blame others, or it was for me. I have repented of this to the Lord, and I am doing all I can to change that. It took me 35 years to get to where I am; I pray that it doesn't take 35 more to get the selfishness out.
