Its horrible! Sometimes we goof up, and so we have a few consequences to deal with.

Other times, people have set out to humiliate us, and that is a very diferent matter.

Yep, crying, feeling like hiding away, being very angry, beating up on your self are some of the responses we make.

Are you able to provide any more detail?

It would depend on the situation.

If it is a specifically Christian humiliation, like someone called you a bible thumper or something then I would suggest spending some time meditating on the Lord's passion. This will strengthen your resolve, and maybe teach you a new way to approach God haters.

If it is a poop your pants humiliation then I would suggest remembering that everyone has moments like those, as well as including more wheat bread in your diet.

peace-

This type of humiliation is like....

sitting at your company meeting (everyone) and on of the managers who you help out tremendoulsy and has told you, you and another collegue are your stars and during the meeting she recgonized these stars but instead of calling your name she acknowleged someone else, and this happen to be my boss.

nothing like a taking out your guts and throwing them back into your body, and went into the ladies room, sitting on toilet, hands shaking as if I was and alcholoic, tears running down my face, looking up talking to God asking him to take care of this because its just not right.:cry:

There is more to this than one paragraph but its as close as I can explain it. thanks for reading my post

God Bless,
Sharri

Hi Sharri,

There are some awful bosses out there. Many are into playing games of some sort, usually as an abuse of their power over poeple. What is important is to recognise she may not be fully competant as a manager of people, and that you will never have a secure base for a relationship with her. Youcan be her best friend one day and on the outer the next. Does this happen?

So, don't allow yoru self to get too caught up in depending on her for affirmation. Remember, you are seeking to please God, and it is His final assessment of your behaviour, and that of your boss that will ultimately matter.

I havehad bosses like yours. They are a pain. We need to develop a mature attitude towards such people, so that we maintain a kind of emotional independance from them.

Feel free to respond

i have experienced this.. i felt like hiding under a rock. i did not want to come out. theres lots and lots of tears.. and pain with it.. but eventually you get over it and learn. i myself had to live with it..and i learned alot. it makes you not want to trust people. the words and actions of one person can damage the mind. we just have to pray and seek Gods help. he was there before it happened..and he will be there afterwards.. its peoples choice to humilate a person.. and when they do ..it tells me what kind of person that chooses to do this ..is..... i have learned and now i live thru jesus.

We all have to deal with humiliation in this life, and we must remember that being humble is a good thing if we suffer it and learn from it, letting God eventually lift us up above humiliation and into the glory He has for those who will share and partake in the humiliation and rejection He went through.

1Pe 4:13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.

2Co 1:7 And our hope of you is stedfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation.

Eph 3:6 That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:

Heb 3:14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;

1Pe 5:6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
