Stuck in the Muck

The key that will unlock happiness and success in your tomorrow lies in your willingness to forgive today.

That’s right. No matter what you have endured, no matter what they have done to you. No matter how they may have used you. No matter how much they stole from you; restoration is yours if you will only humble yourself and forgive.

God knows what you need; He knows the answer to every question in your mind and He can make your life completely brand new. However, your anger and bitterness is holding you back from even seeing all the great things God has prepared for you.

You are actually standing in the middle of an awesome blessing right now. Happiness that you never thought possible is within your reach, today. It would be yours this second if you could stop rehearsing the things they did in your mind.

If you would focus your thoughts on the goodness of God rather than the faults of men you would be poised to claim your heritage as a child of God. If you would release your grip on a desire for revenge, your hands would be ready to receive what God is pouring out. If you could give up the need to have the last word or the harshest insult you would begin to understand.

If you tried to find a reason to love them rather than hate them, that seed of happiness within you would grow. Please understand that the only reason they treated you so badly is because they are completely miserable and full of self hatred.  Can’t you see how much they are hurting? Can you find it in your heart to forgive?

You only hurt yourself by carrying grudges around. That weight is too heavy for you to bear. Give it to God in exchange for peace, love,happiness and a beautiful life. In Jesus’ Name, forgive them and move on so that you can become all that you were created to be.

Mark 11:24-26 (New International Version)

24Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. 25And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.
