It’s hard to love people who hurt you.
We are supposed to help carry each other’s burdens not create more.
Life is hard and it’s harder when we carry around hate and hurt.
Trauma is real and it hurts but if we allow God to heal those wounds He does.
Remember that Jesus loved and forgave you when you didn’t deserve it.
He died in our place so that we wouldn’t have to spend our eternity in hell.
Ask God to heal your past wounds and allow you to forgive those that have hurt and wronged you. So that the peace of God can fill your life.
Lord, help us to never forget that you redeemed us from darkness. May we show that same forgiveness in all our relationships.
Colossians 3:12-15
12 Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. 13 Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. 14 And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.
15 Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace.And be thankful.
