day 4 - The Path
Posted: Fri Sep 24, 2010 6:11 pm
Ok this step is very hard for me to do. I understand how and why to forgive myself, DOING it is harder. I try often to let go of my failures but end up picking them up again. I tell myself: let Go and ALLOW God...
Looking at the measure of my forgiveness through the measure of forgiveness I give others is difficult to allow myself. I tend to forgive easily and rarely hold issues against another. I try to understand and accept that I have not been assigned judge over anyone else.
I am having trouble with the peripheral damage that I caused in regards to my situation. Others have been hurt. Others are paying a price. I do not know how or whether to reach out to them. I need to have God make clear to me that path of direction. I am not asking forgiveness of them, but extending sorrow for my wrong doings.
I will need this path to be made VERY clear as I do not want to do any more harm.
