In the process of some of my healing I learned that opposites can co-exist such as…….
- Growth & Mistakes
- Anxiety & Confidence
- Accountability & Self Forgiveness
- Learning & Unlearning
- What do you think about these examples?
- Over last 60+ years I have experience all of them.
- Obviously during my childhood years there was a lot of growth and mistakes but the rest of them have come with age.
- I learned a lot of things growing up that in order for me to heal I had to unlearn those things.
- While God was growing me in my faith, I made a lot of mistakes.
- While He was pushing me towards His path for my life, I had more confidence because I knew where my strength & knowledge came from. But I also had some anxiety in the process.
- The accountability and self- forgiveness was the hardest. Being willing to allow those friends He put in my life to lovingly hold me accountable and it not stop me in my tracks took self forgiveness.
See, they all fit together in this life. Faith in God is the main source that helped me walk through all these emotions. When my relationship with Him grew, my ability to heal grew also.
Here are 2 scriptures that came to my mind.
Proverbs 19:21: “Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.”
Proverbs 3:5-6: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.”
I pray that you will consider the emotions that you are experiencing and you will hand them over to a Father that knows best. Ask Him to help you heal. Ask Him to learn to grow, learn, have confidence and self-forgiveness.
Have a great day.
