Wow, Five days already? Identifying the problem? Thats is a hard one. because I have so many to identify. Im going to have to look deep for this one. I feel like im not writing enough on my journal. I am feeling so much just cant seem to find the words. alot of emotions coming out. and I am trying to let them go, give them to god. I am remembering old resentments and angers/ like it is all being stirred up.
Thank you for your prayers.

Hello KimSam *Wave*

One thing that has been helping me with the bitterness and resentment is to repent of my thoughts. When my imagination wants to dig up old things and rehash them and even at times reinvent them by making up what I would do if I could do it over which often has some hurtful words and actions towards the one that hurt me. Repenting of what I allow my imagination to do has helped me to stop it before it gets me into a state of anger. Gets my mind back on God and puts me back in my humble place where I need to be.

For me that doesn't always just stop the thoughts as they tend to come back again. Sometimes I'm repenting every 5 min if need be. Ugh! Gotta do what we gotta do to get where we need to be.

Hope this helps. :) I'm very thankful for the friend who once helped me by sharing this with me.

Hi KimSam,

I know and understand what you are feeling, but just remember God wants and expects you to be you on this walk to finding your true Godly purpose. Also take one identification at a time and take things slowly. Please do not overwhelm yourself. Remember God loves you!

Be blessed my sister in Christ!

Sometimes God will bring up old resentments so we can deal with them. Either forgive or ask for forgiveness so we can truly let them go and not have them buried. Once you do, the enemy can't torment you with them any more.
You just have to remember not to pick them back up after you give them to God *BigGrin*

Opening up is very hard sometimes...sharing what is really on your mind and heart....but it's something you do need to do...as bringing the Truth to the Light will keep the enemy from using it against you.

Keep on keeping on hun.

luv ya
