Part II of the 1st of 7 Promises:
Address the Truth.
It’s important to figure out who has hurt you and how. This may seem obvious; but not every action that causes you suffering is unjust. For example, you don’t need to forgive others for being imperfect, even if their imperfections are inconvenient for you.?
?
There are many forms of emotional stress; but the common forms are anxiety, depression, unhealthy anger, lack of trust, low self-esteem, and a lack of confidence in one’s ability to change. All of these harms can be addressed by forgiveness. This is why it’s so important to forgive.
?
Forgiveness Comes from Strength not Weakness.?
Forgiveness is always hard when we are dealing with deep injustices from others. I have known people who refuse to use the word forgiveness because it just makes them angry. That’s OK—we all have our own timelines for when we are ready. But if you want to forgive and are finding it hard, it might help to call upon other resources.
?
First remember that if you are struggling with forgiveness, that doesn’t mean you’re a failure at it. It’s a process that takes time, patience, and determination.?
