My mistakes from years ago still haunt me even when I know Christ has forgiven them
I drag them back up. The Lord allowed me to meet someone who has been helping with the grief of losing my Dorothy on May the10 at 6:41. I know the Lord was in our metting in that we both attended a grief and would probably never spoken if She had not asked me if I new a Steve who is my brother It turned out we had only lived around the corner from each other She and Her husband were married in the same church as Dorothy and I AND HER Dave WAS BAPTIZED THEIR THE SAME AS i WAS so I fully believe God put us together for the odds of meting some one in the St Louis metro area with so much in common are so great. But yet I feel guilty for enjoying being around Her. Help me understand what Christ would have to say about this.

hello there,
I'm glad I came across this site and this group. Most of my life has been lived with no thought towards Jesus or living my life using Him as an example. I think the only commandment I hadn't broken was murder. Ultimatley I "bottomed out", came close to losing my wife and finally clued in that I wasn't living with any plan at all never mind Gods plan.
I visited my daughters Pastor and explained my past and how I regretted things I'd done and Pastor came around his desk, sat beside me and took my hand and led me in prayer. That was two years ago now and my life was changed, I was baptised in November of '09.
I KNOW that God has forgiven me but it's difficult to think that I could be redeemed and even loved after the things I've done.
I'm on a journey now and I often think that I won't have enough time to learn or know enough to ever be worthy of God's love. I DO try daily but there are times when the old me shows up again but at least now I know and recognize that it is the OLD me and he ain't welcome and I'm quick to shut him down.
Coming to God has given me mental peace and a brighter outlook and I wish I'd come to Him sooner.

Kim, I am relatively new to this and cant quote scripture but I do know that once we have accepted Jesus as our Saviour, when we have forgiven those who have sinned us and asked forgiveness of our sins, when we walk with Jesus in clear sight and dont continue to live in a sinful way that we are free from our past, we are free from who we were and what we did. You need to find it within yourself to forgive yourself for you have already been forgiven by our Father. Who you were or what you did, let it go. You are reborn in God's eyes, you are no longer who you were.

LETTING GO OF THE PAST HAS BEEN A BIG ISSUE WITH ME FOR OVER THE PAST 30 YEARS , NOW THAT I'VE FORGIVEN OTHERS THAT HAVE DONE HARM TO ME SOME HOW I CAN'T GRASP LETTING GO OF ME FORGIVING MY SELF. I PRAY EVERYDAY THAT HE'LL LET BE FORGIVE MYSELF.

Letting go of the past, for some its easier said than done. When you have been wronged by someone who you truly love and who you always thought would guard and protect your heart only to find that they have destroyed your heart in ways that cause so much pain. Its a very hard road to go down. I am now 1 year 3 months and 2 days into this journey of letting go and its not been easy. Every day satan plays tricks on my mind to cause doubt and I have to remember thats whats happening. I have to learn to trust again, that I have to have faith again, that the doubts are being cast upon me to try and destroy the hard work and progress that I have made. I pray every day for the strength of our Lord to hold me up and not allow the evil of Satan in to my mind, to help me forgive those that wronged me, for when we are finally able to forgive, when we are able to have faith in those we love, when we are able to trust again, we are free of that burden of doubt and what an amazing feeling of freedom it is when you aren't held down any more from that burden.

Its not all that easy to let go the past because it always showcase itself standing before us. but by constant resistant we can let the past go. The Bible says Resist the Devil and he will flee from you. so when those thought of negativity come into our mind, what we need to do is to resist it and by so doing little by little the past will begin to leave us. But all will be achieve if only your are rooted in Christ Jesus. I pray that His grace to propel us to let go the past rest upon each and every one of us. Amen.

I have been divorced now for 2 months and I am having a hard time letting go of the anger that comes with adultery. Which I found out after separating from hm that he committed from day 1 of our marriage. He slept with my step-mom, the lady that introduced us at the time has been sleeping with him for the last 7 yrs and I was only married to him for 3 yrs. This is tough stuff to deal with so if anyone has any suggestions please feel free to respond.
