Thinking about confession can bring up emotions prompting you to run away. Try to overcome them. Confession is an uncomfortable action, but is important to the path of healing.
Anger is a hard emotion to shake, especially when you replay it in your mind like a broken record player. Thinking through past hurts does no good and only allows bitterness to grow. When you find those thoughts running through your head, take a higher road. Don't just tolerate or manage the situation, confront it head on.
"Your beginning may be small, but later years will be very great." -Job 8:7
Your destiny is not tied up to things and people that have left you. It is time to let go and trust God! God does not allow you to face anything that will not benefit you eventually.
Let it go. Whatever it is that you should’ve let go long ago. Let it go. The freedom that comes next is something wild and true.
Here's the truth: Bitterness and anger is one and the same thing. But Bitterness is anger past its expiry date.
Anything that takes away your peace won't work in the long run.
emotional wounds are just like physical wounds. Bitterness is like the ingrown; it keeps the original wound alive by puncturing it again and again. So your emotional wound doesn't heal. And your soul gets infected. If you're not careful, the emotional wound can grow until it amputates parts of you, slowly killing you.
It’s better to remember the past as David did, by contemplating the good that God has done, to “meditate on all [His] works; . . . muse on the work of [His] hands” (Ps. 143:5)
feelings don't die easily because we keep on feeding them with memories that's exactly the reason why it's so hard to move on.
