None of us go through life without scars. Along life's path we face many situations in which we are wounded and hurt. The really sad part about this is that this is fodder for Satan. He absolutely loves to take our past wounds and use them time and time again to remind us of our hurts, our failures and our pain and in so doing he manages to keep us spiraling round and round, stuck and trapped by yesterday's lies.
We need to remind ourselves that life is hard and tough and things will go wrong and we will get hurt but we do not need to absorb all of that as part of our identity. We can choose to forgive and choose to let go of all of that. It will not be easy but as we let go of our grip, we release the power of God to be able to come into that situation and heal us.
God desires us to be whole and healed and functioning from our strengths and not our weaknesses, so go back to those situations and think about the good messages, there always is one that the devil would like us to forget. Remember the good and hold fast onto that and see God build your life from strength to strength.
