You may point out so many mistakes that they made, but remember that at the end of the day, God still gave you the freedom to make decisions. You can set yourself free from the pain. Just make a decision to surrender whatever it is that people did to you. Put in mind that you can never control them, but you can take charge of yourself. You can listen to the lies of the enemy, or you can do the right…

Day 261 – Philippians 3:13
Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead. Philippians 3:13, NIV Focus on the goal and stop living in the past. What happened before may affect the way you see life, but don’t allow the pain to hinder you from appreciating God’s blessings. Remember His promises and the desires that He planted in your life. Fix your eyes on what’s ahead. Press on and keep moving. Remember that the past will never change, and no matter what you do, you can’t turn back time and change your situation.…

Your Pain doesn’t give you the Permission to Condemn yourself
Accepting your mistakes and condemning yourself are two different things. You can acknowledge the wrong things you did and take responsibility for the consequences without putting yourself down. You must give yourself some time to process your emotions and be patient enough to wait for your heart and mind to recover. Please stop judging yourself. You may think that you understand what’s going on in your life, but only God knows what’s behind the scene. Trust in Him, and don’t put yourself in a place where you can no longer see His light. Focus on His grace and receive the compassion and love that God poured out in your life.…
