My Reflections

Forgiveness

Take UP Your Cross

Prompt:
Matthew 6:14-15
14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Is there someone that I refuse to forgive? Am I holding onto any grudges or bitterness?

Answer:
I try to no hold grudges. I try to immediately forgive. I have asked God to reveal to me if there is any unforgiveness in my heart. I do still have some hurts from the past that I sometimes struggle. I try to deal with them as they arise. I tell God that I don't want this feeling of hurt or bitterness or other emotion. I ask him to help me to process it and let it go. This is an area I sometimes struggle with, not so much the forgiveness part but the bitterness part. As of right now, I think I am good though.

Did I ever tell you about the time I got lost.... yup, its your blog,, have fun!

I am not one to usually get lost. I have a fairly good sense of direction. I like going exploring new places. I try to remember the way I came. If I can not remember the way I came, then I remember the direction I came from. The only time I didn't know how to get to where I came from is when I didn't pay attention to where I was going. Having said that, sometimes hospital buildings can confuse me if I am not careful. This is mostly because they have so many hallways and twists and turns. Most of the time I can usually find a sign that will point me in the right direction though. Of course, I have never tried a corn maze. 🤷‍♀️ It would be interesting to see if I could do it.
