If you haven't figured it out...God is doing something in me... I felt like I'd lost my 'spark'... I only shared this with one person....and then something happened! God has been reminding me over the last 2 days of all the wonderful things He has done in my life....the many times I have been protected when I could have been hurt or even killed....and just knowing I am meant to be here.
I never doubted I have a purpose...I just felt a bit flat. I knew it would pass...I have been blessed in so many ways.
No, I haven't been spared from pain and spiritual anguish, but I have never been alone. God has led me through it. I've been down some rocky paths, felt deep hurts....know the feeling of betrayal and broken trust... but I have come through it. Betrayal is something I would never wish upon anybody. It requires learning to forgive 70 times 7... (Matthew 18: 21-22) and more... learning to have a forgiving mindset, even if your heart takes longer to catch up.
Forgiveness can be a tough thing to deal with....but dealing with it and choosing to forgive, is much better than living in bitterness and regret. I can't say it's easy. It's not. But it is possible. If you are ever in a position to make the choice....I pray you choose forgiveness. It does not mean you have to like the other person. It simply means you choose to let them go, and forgive them. You release their grip on you. You move on.
Hurting people hurt people....don't be a hurter. Be a forgiver.
