Dear readers, today I would like to go back to my last post “Forgiveness Denied. There I wrote that it was only when I was writing a post that I realized that I had refused to forgive someone. When I went before God together with a friend to ask Him to forgive me for this guilt, it occurred to me that this one thing was actually just the tip of the iceberg. Personally, I believe that God has reminded me of what is still hidden and has a harmful influence on me. Denied forgiveness is in our souls like mold in the refrigerator. If we don't check all the food, take all the food out of the refrigerator and then clean it extremely thoroughly, the other foods will also be infected. And that's how it is with our souls. If we don't bring everything to light, the rest of sin will keep trying to influence us.
So you can say that the things I have brought to light are just the beginning of a longer process. Because when I just think about the situations that I have experienced in the last 20 years, a lot of people come to mind that I should still forgive. For me personally, it is important that I have people who will accompany me through this process.
On the one hand, I am shocked that I believed everything was okay and on the other hand, I am grateful to God for giving me the NEW recognition of these sins.
But you know that recognition comes first and then confession. The first for yourself and the second for at least one person and God.
And then, dear friends, we experience this wonderful relief and freedom that only comes so completely from God, the Father.
FORGIVENESS
I myself can already feel the effects of the first step taken in my everyday life. And I would like to encourage you to take this first step and feel what changes as a result.
Be blessed!
