Good Morning! Are you still holding on to past hurts or disappointments? You say you’ve forgiven everyone who has hurt you, but have you? It’s one thing to say you forgive them with your mouth and another to mean it with your heart. Speaking from experience.
Short story (making it very short)…
For years I had said I’d forgiven my daughter’s father for the lies, abandonment, and heartbreak he caused me. However, in reality, I had only packed the hurt away and covered it with things that looked and felt good—one of them was my marriage. Well, sixteen years after I ended things with my daughter’s father (close to nine years into my marriage), we briefly reconnected. Nothing romantic. He reached out to connect with my daughter. He also apologized for the things he did and put me through while we were together (and afterwards).
Well, after he finished his spill, I told him I forgave him. Y’all, when I tell you I felt like the shackles had been released! I said I forgave him and actually meant it. It wasn’t all talk. Unfortunately and fortunately, that act of forgiveness opened my eyes to decisions and choices I had made while I was hurt. Which meant I had to clean up a few messes, beginning with letting my ex go (details about my decision can be found in past posts).
Listen.
Forgive.
Forgive with your whole heart.
I know it’s easier said than done.
Ask God for help—He’s got you!
True forgiveness sets great things in motion.
Try it!
Well, that’s all for now. Thanks for reading. I pray you have a wonderful day and an amazing week!♥️
Love you,
