What do you do when forgiveness feels like the most unfair gift you could ever give?
When you've experienced immense pain and betrayal, it can be hard to see yourself ever getting to a place of forgiveness toward the other person. But, friend, forgiveness is not a gift to the person who hurt us. It’s a prescription for the human heart to heal.
If you find yourself struggling today, here are some reminders:
•That person has already hurt you enough — you don’t have to let them hurt you in your future.
•Forgiveness can free you.
•Creating walls can isolate you, but creating boundaries can protect you.
•Keeping your heart soft without staying unprotected is still possible.
•Forgiveness is both a decision and a process — and God gives grace for both.
Friend, if you are longing for a life free of living on edge, scared that you'll be hurt again, this episode is for you.
Join me, Dr. Joel Muddamalle, and licensed counselor Jim Cress for the latest conversation on the Therapy & Theology podcast.
