Overcoming Our Past Part 4 Good Morning FB Friends I pray that your Friday is beginning off to a great start, but remember it’s all in the emotional process. If you continual to dwell on the negative your day will be unprofitable. Now let’s go back to unpacking that luggage of emotional baggage, I need you to do an exercise sometime this week. Make a list of the hurts that has stayed with you all of your life. Write it down and now see if you can find the positives in each situation, weather these pains were inflicted or self-inflected wounds. I know this may be hard but I’m trying to get you to search for a positive outcome, in other words what great jewel you walked away with. Later you will understand the reason for my method. The other process I want you to look at is did you ever forgive the persons that cause the pain to you. If not, make sure you make it a point to do so, start the process of forgiveness right now. Beloveth, it’s imperative that forgiveness be at the top of the list because we can’t move on to victory if we can’t forgive and let go of the bitterness. Forgiveness plays a vital role in our well-being to recover. I will discuss more about the importance of forgiveness in tomorrow devotional teaching. There are many people walking around in day to day life with unforgiveness in their heart and the unforgiveness is eating away at the very character of your healthy life. Unforgiveness will cloud your perception about life and the people around you and will keep bitterness at arm’s reach. Didn’t you know that many sicknesses come from unforgivingness because of the stress and bitterness it produce? I know it’s a hard task but in due time you will conquer these feelings and move forward. Now I didn’t say you will forget about the experience but you will know how to utilize your experience to a healthier gain, making you stronger, wiser and victorious over future attacks. Beloveth, this is the reason many times we repeat the same process, the same kinds of relationship in men or women or find ourselves making the wrong choices in life because we didn’t learn from our past hurts. That’s why I wanted you to do the above exercise to see if you can identify the jewels or positive from the outcome. If you don’t understand the positive, or learn something from the past you will keep making the wrong choices, connecting yourself with the wrong people or allowing these situations to take away your self-worth. Many times we base our decisions off of emotions instead of what we have learned. Learning brings forth knowledge (knowing how to make the right decisions, being wise in every aspect of life). This should be the jewels, diamonds and rubies that we should be walking away with from every misfortune in life. But instead we allow the hurt to blur our vision and sense of knowing. That’s how we miss the jewels, that positive aspect of our negative situation. Beloveth, take some time and dwell on these facts and as I close on today I will continue to pray for your strength and courage to stand. Stop kicking yourself of the past and start rejoicing because you are coming out of your prison and you will be a blessing to help other make it through life. Now Beloveth, you have just been empowered, now go forth and conquer your day! Percy Craine Making a Difference Message With Love
