As I sit here writing this, it seems like the words never really can come together, I haven't written a post since because I have been thinking of the right ways to put this. In any case, I have decided to write it the way it has been flowing through my head.
My blog post today is about setting the captive in your mind free, because I have realised that we all hold various grudges in mind or resentment for one another but truth is because we are human, we are infallible, and therefore must hurt at some point, which brings me to my starting point.
To forgive is to set the prisoner free, and the prisoner is YOU! Yes!! YOU!!! Once you can forgive that wrong or grudge against the other and can wipe it from your mind where possible, a wight can be lifted from your shoulders and you will allow yourself experience your inner joy because the truth is every one of us carries an expression of joy we only decide to show it or not, we are all created to be emotional, it's the way we are wired, when the heart gets involved with our decisions we bunch things up.
Moving on, to what my bible tells me according to the Lord's Prayer were it says "Forgive me my trespasses as I forgive THOSE who trespass against me so there lies the requirements for Gods forgiveness. It's okay to ask for His forgiveness but you need to forgive others too, it's never in your place to judge anyone, as no one is perfect including you- take for example the adulterous woman who was to be stoned to death. This doesn't say that we cannot correct one another in love, off course in fact the holy book encourages us to do so, but do not hold anything in for anyone, if it is possible after you must have forgiven that person, let the person know that they hurt you but you have forgiven him or her and leave that person to it.
Yes, you might have been raped, beaten, cheated or hurt in any other kind of way not mentioned, but I am telling you it's time to let it go and set yourself free.
If you do not let yourself go, you allow yourself be tied down to thst person and you cannot genuinely get past that hurt. The test to show how strong you are as a person lies in your ability to tell yourself to let go, truth is it is easy to hold unto pain, hurt and anger than it is to let go.
I cannot describe the inherent strength that lies within facing your hurt and letting them off you. I need to let you experience this by yourself. I promise that you will not regret setting yourself free and moving forward, I can tell you it's a difficult road but it's equally a road to strengthen who you are and who you are going to become.
People carry baggages and problems from their respective homes and life situations and look for the nearest dumping ground, they also look for ways to force their superiority against others, once you can get this I tell you what, dealing with people would become easier.
I write this straight from the heart this Tuesday morning and I would conclude and say don't rub yourself of happiness and peace, the onus remains on you.
Have a lovely day.
