Ever made a bad decision? Even though you see the damage and tried to correct it, guilt can bind our mindsets to the past. When we are stuck in the past, we can’t function in the present, which dims a bright future for us.
Have you forgiven yourself? We seek forgiveness from God, which he grants without a doubt.
We seek forgiveness from others when we try to make things right, and the relationship is back on…
But do we forgive ourselves? We may try, but the accuser comes to remind us of what happened, how it happened, and every little detail when we are weak. Instant reminders suck us back into the past and if we’re not careful, we end up stuck there.
Good news. If you’ve moved on then your done. Released. Carry the pardoning papers with you, so if you do find yourself in a flashback you have the power to say, “yes. It happened, and all parties learned and moved on.” In your heart forgive yourself and let your light shine.
“As water reflects the face, so one’s life reflects the heart.”
Proverbs 27:19 NIV
