Making other People Suffer from Pain will Never Set you Free

If someone broke your heart and they tried to ask for your forgiveness, then may you learn to give them the grace that they need. Yes, it’s not easy. Maybe you think that it’s impossible to do it because you still feel the pain inside. But making other people suffer from the mistakes that they did can never set you free. You may want to make them feel the same pain you experienced, but life doesn’t work that way. You will never be healed by taking revenge. Only forgiveness can give you the freedom that you need. So do it not just for the sake of those people who broke your heart, but it’s a very expensive gift you can give to yourself. God knows the pain you experienced, so surrender what you feel in His presence and let Him fill your heart with His love.

May you learn to set yourself free. You have the power to make choices. And what you feel right now are simply the consequences of your decisions. You will feel like you are imprisoned by your own emotions if you will not choose to forgive. If you keep focusing on the pain, you can’t help but feel so bitter with those who broke your heart. Remember that it’s a matter of choice. You can choose peace over pain. Just learn to release forgiveness.

Let God lead you to forgive others. You can never do it on your own. You need the love of God to fill your heart, and He will be the one who will heal you. Let Him reign in your life, and He will lead you to accept and love those people who caused you pain. Following your own emotions will sometimes lead you to destruction. So instead of relying on what you feel, try to consult God, and He will let you experience what it means to be forgiven. He will make you realize that just like those who caused you pain, you are not also perfect, and you need His forgiveness. When you have a humble heart to accept His grace, then you will be able to share it with others.  

Do not take revenge. Instead, leave it all to God. He is our judge, and He is always fair. You may not experience the justice that you want to receive, but you never really know the mighty things that He is doing behind the scene. Just wait and surrender it all to Him. Follow His instructions and stay in His presence. Great things are about to happen. Just have faith.
