I live with unbelievers (trying to be as good as a witness as I can to them) and I found out today when helping look for my mom's lost glasses that my parents hid my purity ring that I had lost, I by chance found it in a case in the living room. They knew how disappointed I was to lose the ring and I was feeling bad for misplacing it as it meant a lot as a symbol and reminder of my promise to God and my future wife and it could be a good witnessing tool if people ask what it is as well. And I found out this whole time that my parents had it and hid it from me and they never told me they found it even after I was upset thinking I misplaced it and told them about it (it's been 9 months now since I've lost the ring). How should I feel about this? I'm just deciding to forgive and move on without mentioning anything to them but it's tough sometimes having that lack of trust and living with unbelievers on a consistent basis especially during this pandemic. I do my best to not take things personal and be patient throughout everything. It's not even about the ring but the entire situation with living with unbelievers who do not approve of you being a follower of Christ. But it meant a lot to me having it and seeing my family do things like this is disappointing.
