Hi Rebekah!


This is what I learnt about pain. It is inevitable in life. How we deal with it determines our destiny. If we try to numb it with addictions we will mess our lives. If we take our pain to Jesus, He will use it to purify us and make us people of worth...


I completely agree with Diana's advice to you...


Blessings,


Steve

Hi Diana.


So good to hear how the Lord touched your life. I have found in my experience in dealing the person who hurt you you must forgive them and pray for them. Jesus gave us that example. It is amazing how your attutide over time will change. You will experience inner peace and joy. After my marriage of 31 years ended in divorce I was so hurt and angry. I didn't talk to my ex for years. WHo did I hurt? I hurt myself and my family. I fianlly forgave him and prayed for him. The hurt will try to creep back in if I let it. Don't dwell on the hurt,as it will destroy you. A beautiful christian lady, Corey Tenbaum, who was in a consentration camp for years gave an excellent analogy. It is like going to a fishing pond where a no fishing sign is posted. We dump out the entire contents of our purse. Then little by little with take the items back. By the way my ex and I do talk now.


God Bless, Terry
