Entitled Emotions
Yes, we can react to every unfair act and wrong treatment against us in such a way that it produces nothing but more of what we've already gotten. Now the perpetrator has gone on with their life and we now are carrying the baggage of hurt, pain, resentment and lack of forgiveness. Poisoning our mind, spirit and eventually having it seep out to destroy our bodies. I personally have been there but I knew how I was with the presence of the holy spirit. I was bright not just on the outside but also on the inside. When a perpetrator came at me full on I allowed the assault of words and eventually hands to leave me with every dark emotion and I carried it for years. Until one day I was free from the environment and I was ready to be filled up with light again. So I did as my guidebook (Bible) and comforter had taught me to do. Lay out before the one that created me...to make me over again. The thing is, I had to do that days and days for a matter of months to a few years.
How many are willing to lay self down before the Lord and STAY there UNTIL?!
Until what you ask? Until you are no longer bound by resentment, hurt, pain, or lacking the ability to forgive etc.
Until you know for certain you have the fullness of his light AND his love with no darkness. Yes, in life we will continue to get hit but we can continue to go before him to get healed all over again.
Hebrews 12:1-17 & John 10:10 (written Jan. 9th inspired after reading my daily devotion)
