One thing I learn from the training is "to forgive".
A lot of times, the things that we try to hold against others really only matter to us and not that much to the other parties. Sometimes they don't even remember or have any idea what they have done to you. And you are the one who holding all the hatred, grudges, grief and pain inside your heart.
Some of you are waiting for the others to say sorry, to say that they are regretted for hurting you. You want them to acknowledge that they have wronged you. Some of you are not able to forgive yourself for things you've done, doesn't matter how many times you've apologized, you still hold it against yourself.
However, without you even knowing, the pain that's kept in your heart has gradually drained you down so much that it has blocked your heart from receiving God's love and healing and has stopped you from doing what God has planned for you. That's what Satan wants not God. God loves us, and he has paid an extremely high price for us that is enough to pay off any bad deeds. So learn to forgive and leave the judgement to God. Just like Jesus, He chose to die for us before we even asked.
Forgiveness doesn't start with the other side, it starts from you. Right there in your heart. Choose to forgive others before they say sorry. Make a commitment to yourself, say to yourself or write it on paper that you will choose to forgive him/her because Jesus has done the same for you. Pray in Jesus name for God's grace to be with you.
Is not easy, yes is definitely not. Who say following Christ is easy? But you are not doing it alone, Jesus is with you and you will not be forsaken.
Leave it to God for He has used love to trade in your pain. =)
