I’ve been praying every morning on how to forgive someone who did the unthinkable the list is long so long and painful to think of it makes me sick and brings me to a rage . I spend my days praying through this , God showed me something this morning . I told God I can’t forgive this time . I said how God ? How do I forgive a person who betrayed me , lied on so many levels it’s to much to write but this isn’t the point . Every day I’m drowning in pain . I push it down and remember God has a purpose for me and I go through my day and God is saying Amy , forgive. So as I drove to work today thinking of the things I needed to forgive this person for I get so deep and think - nope , no way sorry God . God said , Amy your pain they caused you is just a picture of the pain this person is in .
Wow . Makes sense . Someone has to be in a lot of pain to inflict pain . If I’m in unbearable pain imagine their pain . My anger for a moment turned into
Compassion I felt sad . So even though I’m not there yet I began to pray for the healing of this persons pain . And mine . It’s a start right .
I think it was a good lesson this morning in being able to see where hurting people are or lost or just need healing . I know it’s a long road for me but I learned a lot in my prayer time I wanted to share it with all of you in case your in the same boat .
