Forgivness.....
It's a hard thing. I think it's one thing to fogive, but what does that really mean?
In my human mind, I forgive the best way I know how. Doesn't mean my heart doesn't hurt. Doesn't mean I still don't experience pain. I'm human.
When you forgive someone, to me...that means...you still love them. So then why is it so hard to still be in the same room?
Will that feeling ever go away? If I truly have forgiven, then why do I feel this way?
All I can say is Lord please, take control!

Forgiveness is the medicine you take to purge the spirits of offense and resentment. Unfortunately, the dosage must be taken every day for your whole life. Fortunately, the supply never runs out and the curative effect of joy is worth taking it...
My heart goes out to you, sweety. I love you and your dear family so much!
Hopefully the drama is not too bad!!!
Maybe you should share what happened so we can all hope the best for you.
Anonymous...please leave your name so I can get to know you.
I don't feel that sharing what happened is really important. God knows, and he knows my heart. Ususally forgiving involves someone else and their actions against you. It is more important to me right now to preserve that persons dignity (as well as my own) by not saying anything.
I share about forgivness more in part as a need to help me overcome my own struggles with it. Regardless of what someone did to me and how it hurt my heart.
Forgivness is never about someone else...its about what we do.
My inner-struggle comes from being wounded before, dealing with trust issues, and trying with all my heart to be a true forgiver.
I too have been hurt in the past, so, as you can imagine, am leary to leave my real name. I'll call myself Anne. I work with disadvantaged children and love it! I feel so rewarded at the end of each day - to give of myself to others and ask for nothing in return is one of life's greatest joys.
I found your site quite by accident - I surf the net as a way to unwind, and came across it. I can't remember exactly how - I just found it one day.
Hopefully you can work through the forgiveness issues.
